In this guide, you’ll learn all the best methods to wirelessly mirror your iPhone to any TV, including smart TVs, Apple TV devices, Roku, Fire TV, and more.

What You Need for Wireless Screen Mirroring

Before mirroring your iPhone to your TV, make sure you have:

  • iPhone (iOS 12 or later recommended)
  • Wi-Fi network shared by both your iPhone and TV
  • A compatible smart TV or streaming device

Most major smart TVs today support wireless mirroring via AirPlayRoku Cast, or Fire TV apps.

Method 1: Screen Mirror iPhone to TV with AirPlay (Best & Easiest)

AirPlay is Apple’s built-in wireless streaming feature that works with:

  • Apple TV
  • AirPlay 2–enabled smart TVs (Samsung, LG, Sony, Vizio, TCL, Hisense, Panasonic, and more)

How to Mirror Using AirPlay

  1. Make sure your TV and iPhone are on the same Wi-Fi network.
  2. On your iPhone, swipe down from the top-right corner to open Control Center.
  3. Tap Screen Mirroring.
  4. Select your TV or Apple TV from the list.
  5. Enter the code shown on your TV (only the first time).

Your iPhone screen will now appear instantly on your TV.

To Stop Mirroring

  • Open Control Center → Tap Stop Mirroring.

Method 2: Screen Mirror iPhone to Roku TV Wireless

If you have a Roku TV or a Roku stick, mirroring is easy.

Steps:

  1. Ensure your Roku device is updated.
  2. Make sure AirPlay is enabled on Roku:
    • Settings → Apple AirPlay & HomeKit → Turn on AirPlay
  3. On your iPhone, open Control Center → Screen Mirroring.
  4. Select your Roku device.

Your iPhone will now display wirelessly on your Roku TV.

Method 3: Screen Mirror iPhone to Fire TV Stick

Amazon Fire TV devices do not support AirPlay natively, but you can use a free app such as:

  • AirScreen
  • AirBeamTV

How to Mirror via AirScreen

  2. Open the app and select Start.
  3. On your iPhone, open Control Center → Screen Mirroring.
  4. Choose AirScreen / AS-XXXX device.

  • YouTube
  • Netflix
  • Spotify
  • Disney+
  • Amazon Prime Video

How to Cast Video Apps to Chromecast

  1. Open a supported app on your iPhone.
  2. Tap the Cast icon (TV with Wi-Fi symbol).
  3. Select your Chromecast device.

This method mirrors content, not the entire iPhone screen.

Method 5: Mirror iPhone to Any TV Using Third-Party Apps

If your TV is not AirPlay compatible, you can use these apps:

  • AirBeamTV
  • ApowerMirror
  • LetsView
  • TV Cast apps depending on the brand

  1. Install the mirroring app on your iPhone.
  2. Install or enable the companion app on your smart TV.
  3. Connect to the same Wi-Fi network.
  4. Select your TV and tap Start Mirroring.

These apps work on:

  • Samsung TVs
  • LG TVs
  • Sony Bravia
  • TCL
  • Hisense
  • Panasonic
  • Philips

Tips for Smooth Wireless Mirroring

  • Connect both devices to a 5GHz Wi-Fi network
  • Keep your iPhone close to the router
  • Keep apps updated on both iPhone and TV
  • Restart the router if you encounter lag

Wireless mirroring performance depends heavily on your Wi-Fi speed and stability.
