Still no available - AirPlay and mirroring

What's the fix? I used to stream from my iPhone using Chromecast in my old set. This Roku TV has no Apple AirPlay available in settings. And mirroring doesn't work either. 

Am I screwed? Hard to believe there's no a fix. Going down this rabbit hole seems fruitless. My set is model 50fs3850. Software version 12.5.5

iPhone is 13 running iOS 17.1. I can't be the only one with this issue. I've read about rebooting and checking for latest Roku software is installed. Check and check ...

Re: Still no available - AirPlay and mirroring

I’m having the same issue.  All our iPhones and iPad were working very well with Roku tv and several Roku sticks. We use these to cast from Rogers Ignite TV, our cable provider. Since last week, airplay no longer works from all iPhones and iPad to all Roku devices. Nobody seems to have an answer!!

Re: Still no available - AirPlay and mirroring

Oh man, I totally get how annoying it is when AirPlay decides to take a day off on your iPhone. Let's see if we can sort this out together. First things first, make sure both your iPhone and the device you're trying to connect to are on the same Wi-Fi network—it’s a classic gotcha. Sometimes, just toggling your Wi-Fi off and back on can do wonders.

If that doesn't help, try restarting both your iPhone and the other device. I know, the old "turn it off and on again" seems cliché, but it works more often than you'd think! Also, check if there's an iOS update waiting for you; running the latest software can fix little glitches like this.

Another thing to peek at is your AirPlay settings. Swipe down to open the Control Center and see if AirPlay is recognizing your device. If it's still being stubborn, you might want to reset your network settings (just a heads up, you'll need to reconnect to Wi-Fi networks afterward).

If you have problem persist after trying these solution, you can follow for more details assistance below.
