When casting your workouts to a Roku TV, you may notice that the cast icon doesn’t appear. This is expected, Roku TV devices don’t support native casting from iPhones, and some Android devices may also experience compatibility issues.
The good news is there is a simple workaround. You can use a free app such as Screen Mirroring for Roku on your phone.
Mirror your phone using “Screen Mirroring for Roku”
Download the app on your phone
On iPhone or Android, open 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 is free.
Connect your devices
Make sure your phone and Roku TV are connected to the same WiFi network. This is required for mirroring to work.
Select your Roku TV
Open the mirroring app
The app will scan for nearby devices
Choose your Roku TV from the list
Start screen mirroring
Follow the prompts in the app
Approve any permissions it asks for
If you are on iPhone, you may be asked to start Broadcast. Go ahead and allow it.
Play your workout
Open the Studio Era app and start your workout. Your phone screen will now appear on your Roku TV, and workouts will play in full screen.
Notes:
The free version of the mirroring app works well for workouts, but you may see a short advertisement when starting the app.
Audio and video quality may vary depending on your WiFi speed.
