Want to see your iPhone content on a bigger screen? If you have a Roku device that supports AirPlay, you can easily mirror your iPhone to your Roku TV. This lets you stream videos, show photos, play music, or mirror anything on your iPhone directly to your TV.
Just make sure your Roku is updated to Roku OS 9.4 or later, and you’re connected to the same Wi-Fi network on both devices.
Step 1: Open Control Center on Your iPhone
- iPhone X or later: Swipe down from the top-right corner of the screen.
- iPhone 8 or earlier: Swipe up from the bottom of the screen.
Then tap the Screen Mirroring icon (it looks like two overlapping rectangles).
Step 2: Select Your Roku Device
- You’ll see a list of available devices. Tap your Roku device from the list.
- If you don’t see your Roku, make sure it’s:
- Turned on
- Connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your iPhone To check this on Roku: go to Settings > Network > About
If needed, change the Roku’s Wi-Fi connection by going to:
Settings > Network > Set Up Connection > Wireless
Step 3: Enter the Code Shown on Your TV
Once you tap on your Roku, a 4-digit AirPlay code should appear on your TV screen. Enter this code on your iPhone when prompted, then tap OK.
Step 4: Start Mirroring
Your iPhone screen will now appear on your Roku TV. You can watch videos, browse photos, open apps, and more — all in real-time.
How to Stop Screen Mirroring
When you’re done, there are two easy ways to stop:
- On your iPhone: Open Control Center, tap Screen Mirroring, then select Stop Mirroring.
- On your Roku remote: Press the Home button.
