Procedure to Screen Mirror Steam on Roku
Steam has only been released for computers, smartphones, and consoles. So, you can’t add Steam on Roku by visiting the built-in Channel Store.

Enable screen mirroring on Roku to mirror Steam games from a Windows PC. For Mac, turn on the AirPlay feature. Go to Settings → Apple AirPlay and Homekit → AirPlay ON.
- Download the Steam Link app
Visit the Steam Link official website on your Windows PC or Mac’s web browser. Scroll down, choose the respective device, and download the Steam installer package.
- Open the Steam Installer Package
After a few minutes, open the Steam Installer Package and install it on your Windows or Mac.
- Launch the Steam app
Run the Steam app on your computer, log in to your account, and play the desired game.
