Does Roku Have A Web Browser?

Does Roku have a web browser? I’m looking for suggestions or alternatives if browsing the web directly on Roku isn’t possible.

No — Roku devices do not include a built-in web browser like Chrome or Safari, and you can’t install one directly on Roku OS. All models focus on streaming apps instead of internet surfing. To browse websites on your TV, you must mirror or cast your phone, tablet, or computer screen to Roku.

No, there isn't an integrated web browser on Roku. Although some users try screen mirroring or unofficial channels as a workaround, it is primarily intended for streaming apps like Netflix, YouTube, and Prime Video rather than for general web browsing.

Roku does not have an inbuilt web browser, no. You have to screen mirror or cast your smartphone, tablet or computer display to browse the internet on your TV, which can be done via applications such as AirPlay (Apple) or Screen Mirroring (Android/Windows).
