What is screen mirroring and how do you use it?

Screen mirroring sends everything on your phone or computer screen wirelessly to a TV, projector, or wireless display device. It works over WiFi and lets you control the screen from your phone while it shows on the bigger screen. Every modern phone and computer supports it. You just need a compatible TV or wireless display device on the same WiFi network.

Screen mirroring is a wireless technology that duplicates your phone or computer screen on a TV, projector, or other display device. Instead of plugging in a cable, your device sends the picture over WiFi. This works great for presentations, showing photos, watching videos on a bigger screen, or sharing your screen with a group. Different devices use slightly different names for this technology. Apple calls it AirPlay, Android and Windows call it Casting or Miracast. But they all do the same thing.
