Play workouts on your Roku TV (if casting isn’t working)

Play Studio Era's workout videos on your Roku TV

Updated this week

If you want to play your workouts on a Roku TV, the first step is to try casting from your phone. But if you don’t see a cast icon, that's normal sometimes. Roku TV doesn’t support native casting from iPhones, and some Androids don’t work either.

But there’s a simple workaround: Use a free app like “Screen Mirroring for Roku” on your Fire TV.


Step-by-step: Mirror your phone using “Screen Mirroring for Roku”

  1. Download “Screen Mirroring for Roku” on your phone

    • On iPhone or Android, go to the App Store or Google Play

    • Search for “Screen Mirroring for Roku” (look for one by AirBeamTV or iStreamer)

    • Download and install the app (it’s free)

  2. Connect both your phone and Roku TV to the same Wi-Fi network

    • This is essential — it won’t work otherwise

  3. Open the app and select your Roku TV

    • The app will scan for nearby devices

    • Choose your Roku device from the list

  4. Follow the prompts to begin screen mirroring

    • Approve any permissions the app asks for

    • Some iPhones may ask to start “Broadcast” — go ahead

  5. Open the Studio Era app and start your workout

    • Your phone screen will now appear on your Roku TV

    • The workout will play full screen.

Note:

  • The free version of the mirroring app works great for workouts, though you may see a short ad at startup

  • Audio and resolution quality may vary slightly based on your Wi-Fi speed
