How to Connect an iPhone to a Samsung TV

Mirroring your iPhone’s screen to your TV’s display

What to Know

• The easiest way to connect: Open AirPlay on your iPhone > open the content app > tap the Airplay icon.
• Another way: Link your iPhone to your Samsung TV with a Lightning Digital AV Adapter and an HDMI cable.
• Or, try an app with mirroring capabilities, such as the Samsung SmartView app.

This article explains how to connect your iPhone to a TV so you can play or share content from the phone to the TV using screen mirroring. Methods include using AirPlay, linking your phone and TV with a digital AV adapter, or using a mirroring app.

Use Airplay to Connect an iPhone to a Samsung TV

You can connect your iPhone to Samsung TVs that support Airplay 2, including models from 2018 and later.

Make sure that both the iPhone and TV are on the same Wi-Fi connection.

Open the app from which you want to stream.

Tap the Airplay icon.

In some apps, such as Photos, you need to press the share button first.

Use a Lightning Digital AV Adapter to Screen Mirror

This is one of the easier options, but you will need to buy or acquire a specific adapter from Apple for it to work. The Lightning Digital AV Adapter can be found for around $49.00 and works with most iOS devices, including iPhones and iPads. You will need to have an extra HDMI cable ready to use, as it will be used to physically link your iPhone to your Samsung TV.

Connect the AV Adapter to your iPhone.

Connect the HDMI cable to the AV Adapter. You will see the port on the adapter where the HDMI cable needs to be plugged into.

Connect the other end of the HDMI cable to the Samsung TV.

Set the source on the Samsung TV to the input you connected the HDMI cable to. You should now see your iPhone’s screen mirrored on your Samsung TV.

Use the Samsung SmartView App to Connect

If you prefer a wireless solution for connecting your iPhone to your Samsung Smart TV, some apps can help.

When using screen mirroring apps, the Smart TV and the iPhone must be connected to the same Wi-Fi network. The apps will not function if your phone and TV are on different networks.

The Samsung SmartView app is a free app you can install on your phone to allow screen mirroring to your smart TV.

Make sure that both the iPhone and TV are on the same Wi-Fi connection.

Launch the Samsung SmartView app. It will ask you to enter the code that appears on your Samsung Smart TV screen.

Enter the pin, and the device should automatically connect to your TV.

Other Apps With Mirroring Capabilities

Some apps like YouTube have their own way of mirroring the iPhone screen to your TV. Then you can watch your favorite YouTube videos right on your TV instead of the small screen on your phone.

Ratings and Reviews

April update

Fixed my issue with alarm notifications and appreciate the other improvements made with the April release. Thanks.

In most part I’m 100% in agreement with the previous review about the new Feb 2019 update. However, once I changed(Reorder) the home page, I do not have the issue with my home page resetting back to the default after I close the app & then reopen it on my iOS device. And who uses the term “Reorder” to to identify the procedure to rearrange, edit or manage the home screen? I originally thought it was for reordering of more devices. I do agree there is too much wasted space and would prefer the information being a little more condensed vs. having to scroll down the page. And, I also agree with the alerts/alarms. I’ve checked my settings numerous times, but if my iPhone is locked or if I do not have the App open, I do not receive /hear any notification from the App of a sensor being tripped. Notification can be resolved with IFTTT but would think the App itself would be able to provide that notification. I would the ability to remove a room from the home page, but have yet to find a way to do so. I do appreciate the improvements that Samsung made in an effort to improve the App and suspect there is a learning curve on my part, but I would like the user to have the capability/flexibility to manage their home screen the way the user wants it vs how Samsung thinks it should be.

Developer Response ,

Hello! We are sorry for the inconvenience caused and we will take this as feedback. Please contact us at support@smartthings.com for the concerns regarding the SmartThings app with detailed description for assistance.

Working better

Much better but I am having issues with some app integrations. like smart life and Meross.
Update (8/1/20): Emailed and also called and spoke with someone at SmartThings to try to solve my issue with the device integrations. SmartThings customer service were very easy to contact and where very kind and helpful. They tried to help as best as they could but it appears that not many Smart Life app devices are currently compatible. Hopefully this will change in the near future. Meross said and SmartThings confirmed that they are working to improve their integrations in the coming weeks so hopefully my issue of not being able to turn on device in SmartThings will be resolved soon. Tp Link Kasa app and Bond app integrations with those devices are working great! So, in short I believe SmartThings developers are working hard to improve the app integrations and experience which I really appreciate. They have also been very responsive and easy to contact for help. I just received a reply to this review as well which is also why I am adding a star to my review. I will add the fifth star once I am able to fully integrate my smart home in the SmartThings app! Thank you SmartThings for continuing to work to improve your app and the customer experience.

Poor Design New Update

The new update takes what was a very nice, clean and sophisticated looking design and makes it look amateurish. The cards or widgets or whatever they call them are now crammed with the room name, the device name, an icon, an on-off switch and other information. The result is a lot of truncated words and a confusing array which makes it very hard to quickly spot a device you might want to access. The cards on the favorites tab (which replaces the old home page) can be moved around. But they can no longer be organized by room so they are just a bunch of cards lined up in horizontal rows. Unless you go to devices, it’s hard to see all the devices in a single room. But in that devices tab you have to scroll through a separate page for each room to find the devices. Those rooms used to be all listed together on one page on the home screen with the devices listed under the heading. AND you could also go to a room page. On that rooms page all the rooms were listed on the one page (showing the number of devices in that room) with each room being a button that you could press to go to that room. Now it’s just scroll page by page. To me this is a big step backwards. I really wish I could undo the update I made on my iPad. But at least I did not update my iPhon once I saw the design of the updated app. So I’ll hold off on any iPhone update until they hopefully fix some of this bad design — but I’m not holding my breath.

Developer Response ,

Описание

Wirelessly connect your iPhone & iPad to a Samsung TV with this revolutionary app. Easily enjoy anything (movies, photos, live streams, news, etc) on your TV. Try it now!

Application to mirror the screen of your iPhone or iPad to any Samsung Smart TV. No wires and no additional hardware needed! You can mirror any app on your iPhone or iPad to your Samsung TV.

To mirror video as well as audio, please make sure that you start mirroring when you are in the app (Photos, YouTube, Facebook etc.) that you want to mirror to your TV.

This works on any Samsung Smart TV from the 2012 models onward. Which model year do you have? You can see that by looking at the middle letter in your model type (on the back of your Samsung TV).

E = 2012
F = 2013
H = 2014
J = 2015
K = 2016
M = 2017
N = 2018
R = 2019
T = 2020
Q = QLED (also supported)

UE55_E_S8000 = 2012.
UE78_H_U8500L = 2014.

In using the app, there will be a couple of seconds of latency (usually between 1 and 3). So this mirroring is not suitable for gaming.

However, it is very suitable for watching movies, giving presentations, watching photos, and much more!

How the app works:

1. Make sure that your iPhone or iPad is connected to the same local network as your Samsung TV. Don’t use multiple VLANs or subnets.

2. Launch the Mirror for Samsung TV app. It will start looking for your Samsung TV(s) on your local network. When a TV is found, please select it. When you use this app for the first time, depending on your model Samsung TV, the TV might ask you to «allow» the connection. In that case, take your TV Remote Control and press OK to allow the connection from your TV to your iPhone or iPad.

3. Turn on notifications for this app. We will not spam you, but we will use this to let you know if your TV is working correctly or not. So please, please allow it, otherwise when things don’t work as they should, you are left in the dark.

4. Click on Start Mirroring to start mirroring on the TV that is currently selected. After that, you can just go to any other app on your iPhone or iPad and the mirroring just continues to run.

5. To stop mirroring, there are two options. (1) click on the red top bar that you will see on your iPhone or iPad. (2) Go to the Mirror for Samsung TV app and click on Stop Mirroring.

Limitations and known issues:

Some apps block Screen Mirroring. This means that application developers can choose themselves if they want to block Screen Mirroring. For instance, Netflix, Disney and AppleTV+ have decided to block this.

You can purchase the Mirror for Samsung TV Pro Version through an in app purchase.

The Pro Version has the following features:
1. Adds audio to the screen mirroring
2. Provides for free lifetime updates of the app
3. Gives the option to choose higher screen resolutions, like 720p and 1080p
