Okay, you are using AirPlay. Check that your TV supports AirPlay2 - and that both the iPad and TV have joined the same WiFi network.


A restart your WiFi Router, TV and then the iPad may resolve the issue.


To restart you home router, disconnect power - then wait at least 30 seconds before restarting. When you router has rebooted (which may take several minutes), force-restart your iPad:


  • On an iPad with a Home button: Press and hold the top button and the Home button at the same time. When the Apple logo appears, release both buttons.
  • On an iPad with Face ID: Press and quickly release the volume up button, press and quickly release the volume down button, then press and hold the top button. When the Apple logo appears, release the button.

When I was on my iPad, and I wanted to connect it to my tv, there used to be a screen, on say for instance, I was watching something on utube., that I would just hit and it would take me straight to the TV. Now it just comes up with iPad on that screen now. When I open up screen mirroring, it only brings up the iPad. Thank you for replying.
