How To Connect iPhone To Samsung Tv

Almost all modern technology has a function known as screen mirroring, which enables users to project material from the display of one device to the display of another device. AirPlay is the moniker for screen mirroring on Apple devices, which may be referred to by a variety of other names.

Despite the fact that AirPlay is an Apple feature, after the release of AirPlay 2 in 2018, it has been much simpler to link devices from other manufacturers and operating systems. In most cases, if you have a Samsung Smart TV that was manufactured in 2018 or later, you will be able to utilise AirPlay – check to see if your model is on this list to be sure.

In order to use AirPlay on your iPhone, you must first pick “Screen Mirroring” from the Control Center in order to mirror your full iPhone screen; then, from inside certain applications, click the AirPlay symbol in order to cast content from your iPhone to the television. An alternative method of achieving the same result is to connect your iPhone to your Samsung TV using an HDMI connection. Here’s how to do the task.

How to turn on AirPlay on a Samsung TV

Before you can utilise screen mirroring or AirPlay on your Samsung TV, you must first ensure that the capability has been activated on the device.

Start by going to “Settings” and then selecting “General” on your television remote.

2. From the drop-down box, choose “Apple AirPlay Settings.”

3. Select “AirPlay” and toggle it to the “On” position.

How to AirPlay content from within apps

In case you don’t want to project your full phone’s screen onto your TV, several big video providers, such as Amazon Prime Video, HBO Max, and Hulu, have an AirPlay button built right into their applications that you can use instead. AirPlay functionality has been removed from the Netflix app, which is a disappointment.

Some built-in iPhone applications, such as the Photos app, have an AirPlay feature as well, which may be found under the “Share” menu.

1. Once you’ve confirmed that your phone and television are both connected to the same Wi-Fi network, launch the app and pick the media you wish to watch.

2. Locate and press the AirPlay button, which is a rectangle with a triangle underneath it that is often located towards the top-right or top-left corner of the screen. You can AirPlay from the Photos app if you press the “Share” button, then pick “AirPlay” from the drop-down menu.

3. Choose the name of your Samsung TV from the list of available devices.

4. If a passcode appears on your Samsung TV, enter it into the pop-up on your iPhone.

5. Your photo or video should then begin mirroring onto your Samsung TV.
