Isn’t everything better when it’s on a bigger screen? Thankfully, most leading TV manufacturers incorporate AirPlay 2 support, allowing effortless content sharing and mirroring from your iPhone, iPad, and Mac to your TV. But is your TV AirPlay 2-compatible?

Can you seamlessly stream movies, home videos, photos, presentations, and more to your smart TV? And whether you want to check if your TV is AirPlay 2-compatible or check out options before buying a new one, this list can help you out.

However, first, let’s check out what fun things you can do with AirPlay.

How can AirPlay 2-supported TVs make things better?

AirPlay is Apple’s proprietary wireless standard that allows you to cast videos, photos, or music onto the TV. You can also mirror iPhone, iPad, or Mac screens to Apple TV and compatible smart TVs.

And with HomeKit integration, you can control the TV via Siri commands, Control Center, and even from the Lock Screen. Siri can also suggest shows/movies to watch depending upon your past preferences.

FAQs for AirPlay 2-enabled TVs

Q. How to get AirPlay 2 on my TV?


It’s pretty simple, connect your iPhone/iPad/Mac with the same Wi-Fi network as AirPlay 2-compatible TV or Apple TV. Play the content and tap the AirPlay icon.

Q. Can I use AirPlay with my old TV?


If your TV is not AirPlay 2-compatible, you can try the Apple TV app or third-party apps like AirScreen. Or you’ll have to invest in an Apple TV box.

Q. Do all smart TVs have AirPlay?


No, not all smart TVs offer built-in AirPlay support. You might have to download the Apple TV app or compatible screen mirroring apps.

Q. Does AirPlay lose quality?


It depends on your Wi-Fi speed and content playing. Though, AirPlay uses lossless compression and thus performs way better than Bluetooth.

Q. How do I improve AirPlay quality?


1. Bring router closer to improve Wi-Fi signal
2. Ensure TV’s firmware and device’s OS is updated
3. Turn off Bluetooth to eliminate chances of interference
4. Restart all devices to clear cache or other settings

Q. What is the difference between AirPlay and AirPlay 2?


AirPlay 2 is simply the upgraded version of AirPlay. And the main difference is that AirPlay 2 enables multi-room groups, i.e., you can play to multiple devices simultaneously.

Apple’s AirPlay support is steadily expanding and improving. And I am quite ecstatic about it as the feature makes screen mirroring or casting content a breeze.

Although I still feel that Apple needs to collaborate and bring more ease and compatibility to AirPlay and other related features. What are your thoughts on the matter? Do you think Apple needs to loosen a bit? Share your views in the comment section below.
