In this post,  I will cover comprehensively all of the possible reasons why Airplay might not be working on your Element Roku TV, as well as a few easy fixes.

Let’s get started!

Common Reasons Why Airplay Is Not Working on Element Roku TV

Here are the reasons why the Airplay might not be working on your Element Roku Smart TV:

1. Airplay Not Supported by Element Roku TV

Airplay is a feature that all Element Roku Tv models do not have.

To check if your Element Roku TV supports Airplay, go to Settings > Airplay. If the Airplay menu is not present, that means your TV does not support Airplay.

Also, if you are using an Element Roku Roku TV, then you need to run Roku OS 9.4 or above to get support for the Airplay 2.

2. Firmware Issues

To check whether you have a firmware issue, check if your Element Roku TV’s firmware is out of date and has not been updated recently.

Outdated TV Firmware can cause compatibility issues with Airplay connectivity.

To Check the Latest Element Roku Tv Software update you can go to Settings > Support > Software Update.

If you see an update prompting you to install, then you can follow the prompt and get your latest software updates.

3. Airplay Mirroring Disabled

In some cases, Airplay mirroring might be disabled on your Element Roku TV.

This can happen if you’ve previously disabled it or if it’s been turned off by another user.

To enable Airplay mirroring, go to Settings > Airplay > Airplay Mirroring.

4. There might be a problem with your Element Roku TV’s Airplay receiver

If none of the above solutions work, there might be a problem with your Element Roku TV’s Airplay receiver. 

To check if there is a problem with your Element TV’s Airplay receiver, go to the “Settings” menu and then select “About”. 

If you see an error message that says “Airplay receiver not found”, there is a problem with your Element Roku TV’s

Airplay receiver and you will need to contact Element Roku customer support for further assistance.

5. Your Apple Device May not have support For Airplay

If you are using an older Apple device, it may not have Airplay support. Check Apple specifications whether your Device Supports Airplay or Airplay 2 to stream on your Element Roku TV.

Easy Fixes for Airplay Not Working on Element Roku TV

Now that we’ve gone over some possible reasons why Airplay might not be working on your Element Roku TV, let’s look at some easy fixes.

Another simple fix is to make sure that your TV is connected to the Internet. Airplay requires an Internet connection to work properly.

To check if your TV is connected to the Internet, go to Settings > Network > Status. If it says “Not Connected,” try reconnecting to your Wi-Fi network.
