Which HDMI cable do i need to project my iphone to smart tv?

There are a few options/brands out there and the cables on Amazon have reviews that report intermittent problems. I also wonder if it would be the same cable for my iPad.

iPad, iOS 10

I've yet to find a proper HDMI cable that does not work well with Apple products. You will need to purchase a decent HDMI cable and you will also have to purchase this: https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MD826AM/A/lightning-digital-av-adapter?fnode=7bac7dbf6cd05c0ccee7cdb900542984e701fff6d7e9cccabbff00017c0a896e2ede3d350fe24bf8e75a958eb9d0395c8b59e314deab25ddc85c9bdd5e536ac37a6a896a76765177589ba67087493de009384ee4fee1f7d3ee6c1bd9637dd195

As I said earlier I believe Netflix blocks their video signal through this type of use, Android users have rooted their phones and used third party software to get around this.

Thanks for your reply. I have not purchased anything yet. I was looking for advice as I would like to stream Amazon Prime or Netflix from my phone as I do not have WiFi other than on my phone. My daughter does this with her Android using her data plan but many purchases made on Amazon of these cables do not work well with Apple products

Have you already purchased your Lightning digital adapter? What type of content are you going to try to stream?
