SharePlay is always started by a FaceTime call on iPhone or iPad or Mac. If none of the Apple TV users are doing a FaceTime call at that time, then you shouldn’t be seeing anything on SharePlay.

SharePlay can be deactivated on iPhone and iPad if you never (or almost never) want it. Settings﹥FaceTime﹥SharePlay﹥SharePlay﹥Off.

SharePlay initiated by someone else (i.e. an invite to you) can be ignored by turning a setting off on Apple TV. Settings﹥Users and Accounts﹥[username]﹥Shared with you﹥Off.


Use SharePlay to watch movies and TV shows together on your Apple TV - Apple Support

↳ Start a SharePlay session from your Apple TV

↳ End a SharePlay session on Apple TV

… or did you mean AirPlay?
