Good afternoon PapaJo5,


Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!


It sounds like you are having issues with landscape orientation on your iPhone 8 when using AirPlay to mirror it to Apple TV.


  • If you have not done so already, please update to the most recent version of iOS and tvOS.
  • Restart both devices and your HDTV after updating the software.
  • Turn off orientation lock on your iPhone.
  • Enable mirroring and then turn iPhone to landscape orientation.


Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

How to update your Apple TV


Rotate the screen on your iPhone or iPod touch


Use AirPlay to stream video or mirror your device’s screen

"Your TV uses your iOS or iPadOS device's screen orientation and aspect ratio. To fill your TV screen with the mirrored device screen, change your TV's aspect ratio or zoom settings."


If AirPlay or screen mirroring isn’t working on your device


If the issue persists, please reply to this thread and we'll do our best to help you!


Take care.
