How to Screen Mirror iPhone to MacBook Wirelessly

Screen mirroring is a convenient feature that allows you to wirelessly display the screen of your iPhone on your MacBook. This can be useful for presentations, sharing photos and videos, or simply expanding your workspace. There are two main methods for screen mirroring an iPhone to a MacBook: using AirPlay or using a third-party app.

Using AirPlay

AirPlay is a wireless streaming protocol developed by Apple. It allows you to stream audio and video content from your iPhone to compatible devices, such as Apple TVs, HomePods, and MacBooks. To screen mirror your iPhone to your MacBook using AirPlay, follow these steps:

Make sure that both your iPhone and MacBook are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
On your iPhone, open the Control Center by swiping down from the top-right corner of the screen.
Tap the Screen Mirroring icon.
Select your MacBook from the list of available devices.

Your iPhone's screen will now be mirrored on your MacBook's display. You can use your iPhone to control the playback of content on your MacBook, or you can use your MacBook's keyboard and mouse to interact with your iPhone's screen.

Using a Third-Party App

If you don't have an Apple TV or HomePod, you can use a third-party app to screen mirror your iPhone to your MacBook. There are several different apps available, but one of the most popular is AirServer. AirServer is a paid app, but it offers a free trial period so you can try it out before you buy it.

To use AirServer, follow these steps:

Download and install AirServer on your MacBook.
On your iPhone, open the Control Center by swiping down from the top-right corner of the screen.
Tap the Screen Mirroring icon.
Select your MacBook from the list of available devices.

Troubleshooting

If you're having trouble screen mirroring your iPhone to your MacBook, there are a few things you can try:

Make sure that both your iPhone and MacBook are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
Restart both your iPhone and MacBook.
Update your iPhone and MacBook to the latest software versions.
Try using a different third-party app for screen mirroring.
