AirBeamTV Launches App Store App That Allows Your To Mirror iPhone And iPad To LG TV
Mirror iPhone to LG TV.
This new functionality is made possible by the new ReplayKit framework embedded in iOS 11. Similar to the Samsung compatible app, Mirror for LG TV works with devices manufactured by the South Korean companies in 2012 or later. The newest models that are based on WebOS are also supported! It’s a great way of showing the content that’s playing on your iPhone or iPad directly on the large screen of your smart TV without using any wires or additional hardware. The only downside is that the mirroring has a small latency, between 1 and 3 seconds, that makes it unsuitable for gaming. However, you can successfully use for watching movies, photos, providing presentations and much more.

1. Download Mirror for LG TV app on your iOS device.
2. Configure the iOS 11 Control Center and activate the Screen Recording feature.
3. Open the Mirror for LG TV app and allow it to find your Smart TV.

7. Next, swipe-up to bring up the Control Center. Long-press the Screen Recording icon and select Mirror LG TV to start recording.
Tip: Make sure that both iPhone / iPad and the LG TV are connected to the same network. Avoid using VLAN’s.
Mirror To LG TV Limitations
Similar to the Samsung mirroring feature, the LG version can’t provide audio when mirroring the Safari browser.
Sound also stops if you switch apps during the mirroring process. This is why it’s important to first open the application and then start displaying its contents on your Smart TV.
Be aware, that apps like Netflix can’t be mirrored because of the Digital Right Management system limitations!
Tip: Did you know that you can also mirror your Mac to Samsung TV and LG TV?
