I live in a blended household. Half of us have iPhones and half have Androids. Currently we have Chromecasts on all TVs. My Android roommates frequently use various streaming apps like Disney+ or sports networks and things with the Chromecasts.

Me, on the other hand, all I can really do is stream YouTube.

Is there a box that will do both Apple and Android streaming things? I'd like to have the capabilities of both. Would Roku fit the bill? I'd just like for all of us to be able to fully utilize the movie room.
 
Depending on wether apps can be installed on the hardware - there are apps which provide Airplay functionality on e.g. Android TV/Chromecast or Amazon Firesticks. Install one of these and start it before casting via Airplay.
