Try This to Get AirPlay Working Again
One thing that seems to get things working whenever issues arise between an Apple TV and iPhone and AirPlay not working is to reboot both devices. Sometimes an AirPlay device gets stuck in memory on the iPhone. Which won't let AirPlay work at all. Usually, a simple reboot of both AirPlay devices clears this up and it will soon be working again.
Roku is nothing more than a basic computer running on the BrightScript scripting language. Sometimes poor software code can cause computers to lock up and not work.
So try powering down both your Roku or Roku TV and iPhone. Power each device down completely then restart them. Once fully started try using AirPlay again. Sometimes this is all it takes to clear up the problem.
How to Cast Web Video Content to Roku
Casting or using AirPlay to mirror content you browse for on your phone's Web browser is a handy replacement for private sideloaded channels which are no longer available on Roku.
Here are step-by-step instructions on how to view content from a Web browser on Roku.
