- Navigate to System > Apple AirPlay and HomeKit.
- Ensure AirPlay is turned ON.
4. Forget and Re-add Devices (if necessary)
- On your iPhone: Go to Settings > Wi-Fi, select your current network, and tap “Forget This Network.”
- Reconnect to your Wi-Fi network on both your iPhone and the TV/streaming device.
