Hello peeps
Does anyone know why i can't use my iPhone screen mirroring to my tv?
My tv is a Hisense
My son was over & he used his Samsung phone to connect to my tv!!!
So frustrating it just won't load the little wheel in top right corner just keeps going round like it cant find the tv :(
Thank you i advance :)
iPhone XR, iOS 12
Not all Smart TVs support AirPlay, and if you look at the papers from the TV, or information on their website it should indicate. Also, the image that you provided seems to indicate it supports something, but not AirPlay, as if it did it would have to indicate AirPlay. It you select the sources on the iPhone and the TV is not listed, then it does not support it. When you tap on the circle with the triangle in the upper right corner of Control Center, it should open and show the TV, like this:

Thank you Chris for your reply
im not using an adaptor to plug in
yes it has airplay I put it on with the first pic I have added also the 2nd is what I think I’ve turned on but doesn’t seem to do anything???
so I’m a bit confused
Are you using an adapter to plug in? If not, does the TV support AirPlay?
Your TV probably doesn’t support AirPlay. To mirror your iPhone screen to a TV, it must support AirPlay.
Thank you for your reply I thought all smart TVs supported it 🙁
thank you for taking time to reply 😊
Tha k you very much and for explaining it all much appreciated 😊
You're welcome.
