As long as you're on the same wifi network, that's basically it
Screen mirroring copies whatever's on your phone or computer screen onto a bigger display, like a TV or monitor. Most of the time, if your device and TV are on the same wifi network, connecting takes just a couple of taps.
If it keeps disconnecting
Frequent drops are usually a wifi issue rather than a mirroring one β weak signal, too many devices sharing the network, or interference from other wireless gear can all cause it. Moving closer to the router, restarting both devices, and closing other bandwidth-heavy apps in the background often resolves it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the sound come through too when mirroring?
Yes, in most cases audio is sent along with the video and plays through the TV's speakers automatically.
What if the mirroring keeps cutting out?
Dropouts usually happen when the wifi signal is weak or the network is busy with other devices, so try mirroring closer to your router.
