I use a tiny PC and wireless keyboard/mouse hooked right up to one of my HDMI TV inputs. (on Amazon search small PC) This basically turns your TV into a large screen laptop where you can browse the web, check email, facebook etc and log in to any streaming site by using the mouse and keyboard instead of a tiny remote. No need to use any apps.
The Roku remote has a voice button that you can use to search by voice commands.
