How to mirror your iPhone to a Roku TV (AirPlay)
Most Roku devices support Apple AirPlay, so you can mirror your iPhone or iPad screen — or send a video — straight to the TV over Wi-Fi. No cables, no extra app.
Make sure AirPlay is on
On the Roku, go to Settings › Apple AirPlay and HomeKit and make sure AirPlay is set to On. (If you don't see this menu, your Roku may be older than Roku OS 9.4 and not support AirPlay.)
Mirror your screen
- Connect your iPhone and the Roku to the same Wi-Fi network.
- Open Control Center — swipe down from the top-right corner (or up from the bottom on older iPhones).
- Tap Screen Mirroring and choose your Roku from the list.
- Enter the 4-digit code shown on the TV if prompted.
FAQ
- Does my Roku support AirPlay?
- Most Roku devices on Roku OS 9.4 or later support AirPlay. The quickest check is to look for Settings › Apple AirPlay and HomeKit — if it's there, AirPlay is supported.
- What's the difference between mirroring and the Roly remote?
- AirPlay puts your phone's screen or video on the TV. Roly is a remote — it controls the Roku's own apps and menus. They're complementary: mirror to watch your phone's content, use Roly to drive the Roku.
