Mirror iPad Pro 2016 to a Sony TV

I have an 2016 iPad PRO , also a Sony TV with Sony TV operation software.

How can I mirror my iPad to that TV ?

It seems that wifi mirroring doesn't work ( The iPad "see" all other home wifi devices but not this TV ) and I need some kind of an External device to connect to the TV .

Any advice will be appreciated.


iPad Pro, iPadOS 16

Your 2016 Sony TV may not support Apple AirPlay - and therefore you may mot be able to wirelessly mirror your iPad screen to your TV. There are are alternatives, such as using a wired connection between the iPad and TV.


If your iPad has a Lightning port, you will require an Apple Lightning to Digital AV Adapter along with a suitable HDMI cable - or a Lightning to VGA Adapter for older monitors that only have a corresponding analogue video input.
