Hi mickey1189,


Thanks for reaching out to the community. Are you receiving any error messages when attempting to connect? If you are using the AirPlay feature to connect your iPhone to your TV, be sure both devices are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. Be sure to follow the steps and article below for AirPlay.


  1. "Connect your device to the same Wi-Fi network as your Apple TV, AirPlay-compatible smart TV, or Mac.
  2. Find the video that you want to stream.
  3. Tap AirPlay . In some apps, you might need to tap a different button first.1 For example, in the Photos app, tap Share , then tap AirPlay .
