How to fix airplay not working on Roku Express

Jump to solution

Alright, so this is my first post on this Roku Community, and for a few months i did not have any problems with roku, until a few days ago when i tried out the screen-mirror(or airplay), i find it quite useful and used it, and suddenly it stopped working just a few hours ago. I tried connecting to it on a iPhone 7, ipad mini 2, and a Mac, and i even factory reset the Roku, and the airplay is still did not work.

Try turning AP off, reset the paired devices (under Require code), restart the Roku, turn AP back on.

It seems to be the network itself, I’ve got few wifi repeater and when I change my network (for example switching to my router directly) it works…

After your factory reset, what firmware version do you have? (Settings/System/About)

Do you see Settings/Apple AirPlay and HomeKit?

No problem - if it does it again, a restart may fix it; otherwise, do the same procedure (and report the issue to Apple & Roku)
