Streaming: When you stream to a TV (another screen), then you send Audio/Video signal to the TV. The streaming content is displayed on your TV and not on your iPhone. In some cases you can continue to use your iPhone normally while the content that you chose continues to play on your TV.


Screen Mirroring: This is exactly what it states. This procedure mirrors (duplicates) your iPhone’s screen on your TV. What you see on your iPhone is what you see on your TV screen.
