How do I connect my 7 plus to my TV

You can connect your iPhone 7 Plus to your TV to see your photos, videos, and apps on a bigger screen. You have two main options: a wireless connection or a wired one. Your choice depends on the type of TV you have and whether you have a stable Wi-Fi network.

Connect Wirelessly with AirPlay

If you have a smart TV that supports AirPlay, this is the simplest wireless method. AirPlay is Apple’s feature for streaming content between its devices.

To connect your iPhone 7 Plus using AirPlay:

1. Connect your iPhone and your smart TV to the same Wi-Fi network. Your devices must be on the same network for AirPlay to work.
2. Open the Control Center on your iPhone 7 Plus website 7plus.com.au/connect. You can do this by swiping up from the bottom of your screen.
3. Tap the Screen Mirroring button, which looks like two overlapping rectangles.
4. A list of available devices will appear. Select your TV from this list.
5. The first time you connect, a passcode may appear on your TV screen. Enter this code on your iPhone to complete the connection. Your iPhone’s screen will now be mirrored on your TV.

To stop mirroring, open the Control Center again, tap Screen Mirroring, and then select “Stop Mirroring”.

Connect Wirelessly with a Streaming Device

If your TV doesn’t support AirPlay, you can still connect wirelessly using a separate streaming device. Options include Google Chromecast, Roku, or an Amazon Fire Stick. These devices plug into your TV’s HDMI port and act as a receiver for content from your iPhone.

To use a streaming device:

1. Plug the device (Chromecast, Roku, etc.) into an available HDMI port on your TV and connect it to a power source.
2. Follow the device’s setup instructions, which usually involve connecting it to your Wi-Fi network.
3. On your iPhone, open the app you want to stream from (like YouTube or Netflix).
4. Look for the Cast icon, which often looks like a rectangle with a Wi-Fi symbol in the corner. Some apps, like 7plus, have this button in the top right corner.
5. Tap the Cast icon and select your streaming device from the list. The content will begin playing on your TV.

Connect with a Cable

A wired connection is a reliable option, especially if your Wi-Fi is slow or unavailable. This method uses an adapter and an HDMI cable to physically link your iPhone to your TV. You will need a Lightning to Digital AV Adapter and a standard HDMI cable.

To connect your iPhone 7 Plus with a cable:

1. Plug one end of the HDMI cable into a port on the back or side of your TV.
2. Plug the other end of the HDMI cable into the Lightning to Digital AV Adapter.
3. Connect the adapter’s Lightning plug to the charging port on your iPhone 7 Plus.
4. Turn on your TV and use the remote to select the correct HDMI input source. You should see your iPhone’s screen appear on the TV.

This method directly mirrors what’s on your iPhone screen. It works well for watching videos, which will fill the entire TV screen, or playing games, though you might notice a very slight delay.
