In my case, updates have helped, but only as part of a sequence. I usually start by confirming both devices are on the exact same Wi-Fi (not the guest network), then I disable VPN/Private Relay for a minute and re-allow local network access. After that I reboot both ends and check for pending updates on the box and on my phone. Right in the middle of that routine, How to Fix Roku Remote App gives a tidy checklist to move through without guessing. When the stutters keep coming back, I try locking everything to one band (2.4 or 5 GHz), re-pair from the device settings, and only then power-cycle the router so discovery has a clean start.
