Solving playback issues

[choco]

The Android Roku app is version 9.9.1.2659820 . The Roku device it's connecting to is an Ultra 4660X. Its software version is 12.5.0. 

I looked at this page https://support.roku.com/en-ca/article/208755108 describing the Play On Roku feature of the app. I remember using it from time to time several years ago. I follow the instructions on that page now and there is no Media icon in the Android app. Is the page telling lies to Roku's customers? Did this feature move to a different part of the app but the page wasn't kept up to date?

@choco-

I have no Media icon on my Android Roku app, either.

That  2022-11-03 article is over a year old at this point.

I mean, if Play on Roku was eliminated from the app for BS reasons, then fine. But I'd appreciate Roku explaining that on their actual official support website.

Hi @choco,

Greetings from the Roku Community, and thanks for reaching out.

Please be advised that this option is no longer available on the Roku Mobile App. But you can still use the Airplay and Screen mirroring as a workaround.

For more information on how to use it take a look at some guided steps below.

Thanks,
