How Airplay LG TV?|BJCast
To stream content from an iPhone, iPad, or Mac to an LG TV using AirPlay, it is necessary to ensure that the LG TV supports AirPlay functionality. Here are the steps to play content on an LG TV using AirPlay:
1. Check if LG TV supports AirPlay
View TV model:
Not all LG TVs support AirPlay. Newer models, especially high-end series such as OLED and NanoCell released in 2019 and later, are more likely to support AirPlay 2.
Check TV settings:
Open the LG TV, go to the “Settings” menu, and check if there is an option for “AirPlay” or “AirPlay“. If you see these options, it means the TV supports AirPlay.
2.Connect Apple devices and LG TVs
Ensure that the devices are on the same Wi Fi network:
Connect your iPhone, iPad, or Mac to the same Wi Fi network as your LG TV.
Open AirPlay:
On Apple devices, swipe up from the bottom of the screen (iPhone/iPad) or click on the Control Center icon in the top right corner of the screen (Mac), then find and click on the “AirPlay” or “Spaceplay” icon.
3. Select LG TV and play content
Select target device:
In the AirPlay device list, select your LG TV as the target device.
Start playing:
Once the LG TV is selected, the content on the Apple device will begin streaming onto the TV. This includes music, videos, photos, and screen mirroring.
4. Precautions
Software update:
Ensure that your LG TV and Apple device are updated to the latest software versions for optimal compatibility and performance.
HDMI and input source:
If your LG TV supports AirPlay but cannot find the ‘air play’ option, make sure you are not using HDMI or other input sources to connect your Apple device. AirPlay typically connects wirelessly through Wi Fi.
Restart the device:
If you encounter connection issues, you can try restarting your LG TV and Apple device, and then try connecting again.
Using the ‘Home’ app:
If you have added your LG TV to Apple’s Home app, you can easily control and manage AirPlay connections through the app.
Third party application support:
Not all third-party applications support AirPlay. When using a specific application, please check its settings or help documentation to confirm if it supports AirPlay.
By following the above steps, you should be able to successfully stream content from your Apple device to an LG TV that supports AirPlay using AirPlay. If you encounter any problems, please refer to the official documentation of LG TVs and Apple devices or contact customer support for assistance.
