For Macs, Apple has another solution: QuickTime Player, but you need to be connected to your Mac with a Lightning cable. It's not currently possible to AirPlay your screen to your macOS or Windows computer. However, AirPlay doesn't work in all situations.įirst off, AirPlay can mirror your iPhone's entire screen but only to a compatible smart TV or Apple TV. It's useful to have during lectures, presentations, and meetings, so it's no wonder why Apple created its AirPlay technology.
Screen mirroring software has been around for ages, allowing you to mirror your iPhone to a projector, laptop, TV, or another device.
