Hey moufid274,


It looks like you're coming from the article: Use AirPlay to stream video or mirror the screen of your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


"Mirror your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to a TV or Mac

  1. Connect your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to the same Wi-Fi network as your Apple TV, AirPlay 2-compatible smart TV, or Mac.2
    • Open Control Center:On iPhone X or later or iPad with iPadOS 13 or later: Swipe down from the upper-right corner of the screen.
    • On iPhone 8 or earlier or iOS 11 or earlier: Swipe up from the bottom edge of the screen. 
  1. Tap Screen Mirroring  .
  2. Select your Apple TV, AirPlay 2-compatible smart TV, or Mac from the list.
  3. If an AirPlay passcode appears on your TV screen or Mac, enter the passcode on your iOS or iPadOS device.

To stop mirroring your iOS or iPadOS device, open Control Center, tap Screen Mirroring, then tap Stop Mirroring. Or press the Menu button on your Apple TV Remote.

  1. Some video apps might not support AirPlay. If you can’t use AirPlay with a video app, check the App Store on your Apple TV to see if that app is available.
  2. Find out which macOS versions and Mac models are compatible with AirPlay to Mac."


Those would be the best steps to take to mirror your iPhone to Mac. There would not be additional options available for playing content windowed on Mac.


Thanks!
