AirPlay is a feature that allows you to stream audio or video from your iPad to another device, such as an Apple TV or a home theater system. You can also use AirPlay to mirror the display of your iPad on another device, so that whatever is shown on your iPad screen is also displayed on the other device. Here’s how to use AirPlay to stream and mirror your iPad:
- Make sure that your iPad and the device you want to AirPlay to are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
- On your iPad, swipe up from the bottom of the screen to access the Control Center.
- Tap the AirPlay button, which looks like a TV with a triangle in the corner.
- Select the device you want to AirPlay to from the list.
- If you want to stream audio or video from your iPad to the other device, simply select the device and start playing the audio or video on your iPad. It will automatically be streamed to the other device.
- If you want to mirror your iPad display on the other device, tap the “Mirroring” switch to turn it on. Your iPad screen will now be displayed on the other device.
Note that some apps may not support AirPlay, or may only support streaming and not mirroring. In these cases, you may not be able to use AirPlay with those apps.
