Airplaying message on screen

I am screen mirroring and the message “Currently Airplaying to device” won’t go away. The 2015 fix I found to turn off Conference setting is not applicable as that function doesn’t show in my Settings. Thanks for your help.

Notch keeps showing airplay icon even when not in use. Since the recent iOS 17.0.2 update my iPhone 12 mini has a blue flashing AirPlay icon in the left side of the notch when the screen is unlocked, regardless of whether or not I’m using AirPlay. I’d frankly rather it just kept the time displayed there regardless, but some rationale behind it would be nice in lieu of an actual setting, which doesn’t appear to exist.

AirPlay Banner Missing on iPhone 16 Pro Max After Upgrade to iOS 18.3 I’ve encountered an issue where the AirPlay banner fails to appear when trying to stream content from my new iPhone 16 Pro Max to my Apple TV. This problem started immediately after upgrading from my iPhone 14 Pro Max, and despite all of the troubleshooting literally, it persists. I’d appreciate any advice or shared experiences! Issue Details: - When it occurs: Attempting to AirPlay from apps (e.g., youtube, apple music etc). - Devices affected: - iPhone 16 Pro Max (iOS 18.3) - Apple TV 4K (3rd gen) (tvOS 18.3) - Previously worked with iPhone 14 Pro Max on iOS 18. -Network setup: Both devices on same Wi-Fi, Bluetooth enabled, no VPN. Steps I’ve Tried: 1. Restarted iPhone 16 Pro Max, Apple TV, and router. Also resetted Apple Tv and iphone. Then tested without restoring from icloud as a new device. 2. Verified Wi-Fi/Bluetooth and same network for both devices. Also tested on another wifi and tv. Tried with a other router. Checked router settings. 3. Updated iOS and tvOS to latest versions. 4. Reset network settings on iPhone 16 Pro Max. 5. Disabled/re-enabled AirPlay on Apple TV. 6. Tested with multiple apps (issue persists). 7. Confirmed no content restrictions or VPN interference. - Has anyone experienced AirPlay issues after upgrading to iPhone 15/16 series or newer iOS versions? Any hints? The issue began immediately after switching to iPhone 16 Pro Max. My old iPhone 14 Pro Max worked flawlessly. Very disappointing. - Screen mirroring and manual playback destination change to airplay works though. If anyone needs further details or logs, let me know. Thanks in advance for your help!

AppleTV screen saver Recently my screen saver on my AppleTV started having a pop up message about the ability to use AirPlay to view from other devices. It would be fine once but it keeps popping up. How do I turn it off?

Hello, kathleenfromsc.

To start off with, check this article to make sure the steps for using Airplay between your Apple TV and iPad are being followed: Use AirPlay to stream audio and video on Apple TV - Apple Support.

If that does not help, try ending the screen sharing session and restarting the iPad (Restart your iPad - Apple Support), then restart the session. This may help to straighten out the devices.

Let us know if we can help with anything else at all or if this doesn't settle your issue so we can look into this further with you. Thanks and have a fabulous day!
