    • If prompted on the TV, allow the connection.
  3. Adjust settings if needed:
    • You can change the aspect ratio or allow automatic connection by adjusting settings on the TV under Settings > General & Privacy > External Device Manager > Device Connect Manager

For iPhone/iPad (Using AirPlay)

  1. Enable AirPlay on Samsung TV:
    • On your Samsung TV, go to Settings > General > Apple AirPlay Settings.
    • Turn AirPlay On.
  2. On your iPhone/iPad:

    • Open Control Center and tap Screen Mirroring.
    • Select your Samsung TV from the list.
    • Enter the AirPlay code shown on the TV if prompted.

Additional Tips

  • Make sure both devices are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
  • Restart devices if the TV does not appear.
  • Update the software on both your TV and phone/tablet.
  • Use the Samsung SmartThings app or Smart View app for easier connection and control.
  • For newer Samsung TVs and phones, you can also use Tap View by bringing your phone close to the TV to start mirroring

This process works wirelessly and does not require cables, but HDMI adapters can be used if wireless connection is problematic
