Have you ever thought about how to mirror your iPhone screen to your smart TV without any third-party apps? Well, the good news is, you can do it for free, and it’s pretty easy. In this article, we will show you how to mirror your iPhone to your smart TV without any hassle.

First, let’s take a look at what you need. You need an iPhone and a smart TV that supports Airplay and HomeKit. In this tutorial, we will be using a Roku Express smart TV.

The first thing you need to do is to make sure your iPhone is connected to a network. Go to your iPhone settings, and navigate to the Wi-Fi settings. If you don’t have Wi-Fi available, you can use mobile data. However, note that mobile data isn’t free, and depending on your network, it might cost you some credit.

Once your iPhone is connected to the network, go back to your smart TV and navigate to the network settings. If you have a Roku Express TV, go to the setup connection tab and click on wireless. It will automatically search for all the available networks that are available to you. Click on your network, and it will ask you for the password. Once connected, make sure your iPhone and TV are on the same connection.

Now, go back to the settings page on your smart TV and navigate to the Apple Airplay and HomeKit settings. Click on it, and it will ask you for some sort of password. If you have done this before, you can set up the HomeKit as well.

On your iPhone, swipe down the control center, and you will see the option for screen mirroring. Click on it, and it will search for available devices. Click on your TV, and you’re done. You can now watch YouTube videos, play games, and even use your camera on your smart TV.

To stop screen mirroring, go back to the control center and click on stop. That’s it. It’s that simple.

In conclusion, mirroring your iPhone to your smart TV is easy, and you can do it for free without any third-party apps. Just make sure your iPhone and smart TV are connected to the same network, and you’re good to go. If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to leave them in the comments below.
