Hi Michael Allen thanks a lot for asking this! Smart Remote is integrated with your Xfinity set-top box only via Infrared whereas your Xfinity remote may be wireless. This is why you need to be in the line of sight with your set-top box when using Smart Remote.

Are there plans to update this so it works the way the remote works with a Roku box? Using that I don't need to point my remote at the Roku. What's the difference?

Michael Allen Wi-Fi integration with Xfinity box is not planned yet but we can definitely add it on our roadmap.

I would have chosen to go with a Logitech remote had I know the Sevenhugs remote would not work as good or better than the supplied Xfinity remote. What a pain that I can control my Xfinity from two rooms away but have to aim directly at the Xfinity box from within feet for this to simply change channels!
I would like to say I love this remote however I'm leaning in the opposite direction!

Richard Thank you for your feedback, we will make sure to take it into account for future improvements and development of Smart Remote.
