How to AirPlay IPTV from iPhone or iPad to your TV

Send IPTV from an iPhone or iPad to your TV with AirPlay: which TVs support it, how to start it, and fixes when AirPlay shows audio only or disconnects.

How to AirPlay IPTV from iPhone or iPad to Your TV

Quick answer

Start a channel in an iPhone IPTV player, tap the AirPlay icon and choose your Apple TV or AirPlay 2 TV (recent Samsung, LG, Vizio, Sony and Roku models). Both devices must be on the same Wi-Fi. If the app has no AirPlay button, use Screen Mirroring from Control Center.

AirPlay is the quickest way to get IPTV from your iPhone onto the big screen without installing anything on the TV.

TVs that support AirPlay

Apple TV, and many TVs made since 2019 from Samsung, LG, Vizio and Sony, plus some Roku devices. Look for AirPlay in the TV's settings.

How to AirPlay a channel

  1. Connect the iPhone and TV to the same Wi-Fi.
  2. Open your IPTV player and start a channel.
  3. Tap the AirPlay icon in the player and choose the TV.
  4. If there is no icon, open Control Center and use Screen Mirroring.

Every app on this page asks for the same thing: either an Xtream Codes login (server address, username, password) or an M3U playlist link. IPTV Trends sends both as soon as your payment clears. If an app offers both, use the Xtream Codes login: it loads the channel groups and the TV guide together. See M3U vs Xtream Codes.

AirPlay problems

  • Audio only: some streams cannot be sent as video; use Screen Mirroring instead.
  • Disconnects: turn off Low Power Mode and keep the app open.
  • Lag: use 5 GHz Wi-Fi.

For everyday viewing, an app on the TV itself is more reliable: IPTV on Apple TV.
