Screw Magazine has launched Screwcast, a new streaming application for Screw Network, enabling users to stream adult entertainment directly to Roku devices over a home Wi-Fi network. The service emphasizes privacy, convenience, and personal choice for adult content consumption.
Screwcast Functionality and Availability
Launched on July 13, 2026, Screwcast allows viewers to browse content on their phone or computer and cast it to their home television. The application is designed to communicate with a user's Roku device across their local Wi-Fi network, distinguishing it from cloud-based sharing platforms. This setup aims to provide a viewing experience without requiring complicated setup or additional hardware.
Screwcast is currently available as a free download for Android devices, which users can obtain directly from Screw Network. For Windows and Mac users, Screwcast installs as a Google Chrome extension. iPhone and iPad users can access Screwcast through the Orion browser. A native iOS application is under development and is slated for release in the fall of 2026.
To utilize Screwcast, users must first install the free SCREW TV channel on their Roku device. Once installed, users can browse Screw Network on their Android phone or in Chrome on their computer and select "Play On Roku" on any video. The Chrome extension operates in the background without requiring additional browser buttons or steps after installation.
Subscription and Content
Access to Screwcast requires a subscription to the Screw TV Roku channel. Early adopters can subscribe for $9.99 per month. The subscription price is set to increase to $19.99 per month as more content is added to the network. At its launch, Screwcast streams content directly from ScrewNetwork.com. This includes Screw Network's catalog of original productions, licensed partner content, affiliate content, and classic video.
Phil Italiano, publisher of Screw Magazine, stated that the platform was built around the belief in the right to freedom of entertainment. Italiano emphasized that adults should have the freedom to choose what they watch, where they watch it, and how they watch it, responsibly and privately within their own homes, using their own devices and services. Italiano also noted that the platform was engineered with publishers in mind, aiming to help studios reach television audiences with minimal development work, while offering consumers a more comfortable and private viewing experience.

Looking ahead, Screw plans to launch its own streaming stick device specifically for adult content in 2027.
