How to Mirror Galaxy S10 to Roku

1. Using the remote that came with your Roku, press the Home button. Choose “Settings” from the sidebar on the left of the screen.

2. Go to the “System” menu.

3. Choose the “Screen Mirroring” option.

4. Choose either “Prompt” or “Always allow” from the drop-down menu. Always allowing screen sharing is a convenient option to have if you do not mind the possibility of unauthorized users accessing your Roku and sharing their display with others.

5. To access the notification centre on your Galaxy S10, scroll down from the top of the screen in the direction of the arrow. You’ll need to pull it down one more so that you can view all three rows of icons.

6. Find Smart View. It’s possible that you won’t locate it until you swipe through the next two or three pages of icons.

7. Tap “Smart View.” After a little while, a list will appear on your phone containing all of the nearby devices to which it is possible to connect.

8. When you see it, tap the entry for your Roku when you get to that screen.

9. If you selected the option to be prompted each time you tried to mirror to the Roku, go back to the screen you were using on your TV and use the Roku remote to select “Always allow” or “Allow.” The Galaxy S10 will automatically connect and display on your TV when a moment has passed.

You should be linked at this point, and anything you show on the display of your Galaxy S10 will now appear on the screen of your television via the Roku.

In other words, if you want to enlarge the display on your phone so that it fits the dimensions of the TV screen, your Galaxy S10 may ask you whether you want to modify the aspect ratio so that it is compatible with the television. Pick the alternative that better suits your needs.
