Hey,

Re: Airplay doesn’t work after new tv update

Hi  @Rrestoule666

Thank you for reaching out to us with your concern about AirPlay not working on your TCL Roku TV after a recent software update. We understand how frustrating it can be to experience issues like this, especially during important moments like the Stanley Cup finals.

To troubleshoot this issue, we recommend the following steps:

  • Make sure your TCL Roku TV and iPhone are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
  • Check that AirPlay is enabled on your TCL Roku TV. To do this, go to Settings > Apple
  • AirPlay and HomeKit > AirPlay.
  • Restart both your TCL Roku TV and iPhone.
  • Try using AirPlay again to see if the issue has been resolved.

We hope these steps help resolve the issue so you can enjoy watching the Stanley Cup finals on your TCL Roku TV. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to us.



Warm Regards,

As I mentioned in my post, I have done all of this. None of these steps work.  It is a problem with your new update and not on my end. Please fix your update.

Re: Airplay doesn’t work after new tv update

I am having this same issue….I cannot screen mirror on my TCL Roku smart tv….Apple home kit is set up properly, but m in the same wifi as the tv….but when I scan the QR code from the HomeKit screen on the tv and try to connect, it just refuses to connect….

 

please fix this bug! Since you got rid of the Porn Hub App, screen mirroring is my only hope….HELP!

Re: Airplay doesn’t work after new tv update

Have used the feature since purchasing the TV several years ago and I'm no longer able to connect. I've restarted all devices and reset the network settings. Everything is enabled and nothing has changed since it worked. Now it doesn't. Please fix this Roku. Likely my last Roku TV if this can't be resolved as I use this for work.
