Apple Airplay: Share your Mac, iPhone or iPad screen without an app on an i3CONNECT display

AirPlay lets you wirelessly share your Mac, iPhone, or iPad screen to any i3CONNECT display. This guide is for anyone who wants to present, teach, or collaborate using their Apple device and an i3CONNECT touchscreen.

Before you start

Troubleshooting

  • Touch control not working? Apple devices do not allow for touch-back unfortunately. You can try this article but we cannot ensure it will work.

  • Can’t find your i3CONNECT display? Check that both devices are on the same Wi-Fi network.

  • No sound or video? Some apps may not support AirPlay. Try another app or check for updates.

  • AirPlay code not appearing? Make sure you are viewing the Airplay tab to see the PIN code. Otherwise, restart both your Apple device and the i3CONNECT display.
