Have you ever had a funny video on your phone and by the time you passed your phone around to show everyone, it's just not funny anymore? You don't need an Apple TV to share it faster; you can screen-mirror your funny videos straight to your Samsung TV for the whole room to see.
Believe it or not, getting to the Settings on your Samsung TV may be the hardest part of this process. First, you'll need to tap the Settings button at the top of your remote to bring up the hovering menu option. Next, use the circle at the top of your remote to move your cursor all the way to the right, where you'll find the option to choose "All Settings."
Also: I decluttered my iPhone and freed up gigs of space. Here's how
This may seem daunting to figure out at first, but don't fret—it only takes a few minutes to get your phone mirrored on the big screen.
How to screen-mirror an iPhone to a Samsung TV
Materials needed: Samsung TV, Apple iPhone, Samsung TV remote
Estimated time: 5 minutes
Don Reisinger/ZDNETNext up, you'll need to scroll down to the Connection tab, where you'll find the Apple AirPlay Settings option that we've been seeking from the very start. From there, a black screen will appear with an AirPlay logo and four gray boxes on the right side of the screen, allowing you to toggle AirPlay on or off (it's on by default), whether to choose a code for logging on, and more.
While there are four gray boxes on the screen, you will only need to adjust the top three settings based on your preference. Turn on AirPlay, and adjust the Require Code and Subtitles and Captioning settings based on your personal preference.
The AirPlay logo is a TV with the Wi-Fi logo diagonal across it. When you see that logo on your app, click the button and a drop-down menu will appear where you can select the TV you wish to stream on.
If this is your first time setting up AirPlay on your Samsung TV, it may require a code on your iPhone. If this is the case, once you select the TV from the AirPlay menu, a code will appear on the TV screen prompting you to enter it on your iPhone. Simply input the code and wait a split second while Apple verifies it's the same as the one displayed on your TV. Now you're good to go.
