Sony Bravia airplay not working from iPhone 12

I’ve downloaded the Home app and I’m trying to add my tv so I can use the airplay function but when I scan the QR code or type in the code number I’m told it’s incorrect. Which it isn’t!

Any ideas?

Thank you,

Ben

Can't pair via Airplay from iPhone to new Sony TV I have a brand new 2021 Sony Bravia TV, an A80J, which is completely compatible with Airplay 2 and Homekit. Or should be. I am unable to get Airplay to work on it, or Homekit. Here's what happens. I have the TV set up to accept Airplay, with a code needed 'First Time Only.' I open an app which I will frequently want to cast to the TV, GCN+, and start watching a bike race. The Airplay icon is there in the corner, I tap it, it offers me either my AppleTV 4K (which is not on) or the Sony TV. I choose the latter, and a 4 digit code comes up on the TV screen. I enter the code, there's a delay, then...it fails to connect. Often while this is happening the code actually changes. But in any case it seems like the code expires while the phone is beachballing. So I try Homekit, enable that on the TV, open the app on the iPhone (an 11Pro by the way), choose 'Add an Accessory,' but as soon as I scan in the visual code off the TV, OR enter the number manually, the code actually CHANGES, and I get the error: Unable to Add Accessory, the setup code is incorrect. Which it is...because it just changed. This is perverse! What can I do differently?
