Airplay Software update for older TV models?

Is there any chance of a Software Update for TCL Roku smartTVs that do not have the Airplay HomeKit option? I have 3 TCL Roku SmartTVs. Two of them have the option, one does not. The one that doesn't is a Roku TV: 5140X; TCL Model 32S305; Software Version: 10.5.0 build 4210-08
I have checked for software updates and it is up-to-date.  I did purchase a device that plugs into an HDMI port that works for screen mirroring but it is not as convenient as having the airplay option. 
One can always hope.

Airplay/HomeKit no longer works even on newer TV models since 10.5 update 6-7 weeks ago.

 

You aren't missing out on anything. As a fellow Apple user I'd suggest you run the other way! Roku doesn't deserve HomeKit/Airplay certification it advertises.

Please Roku  have a new update to correct this inconvenience.  Lynn
