iPad app recommendation needed for mirroring

I want to use iPad to connect to Sony A8H smart TV, which does show "Airplay on" in some setting, though I don't know where. Any recommendations for free iPad app to use for mirroring to the TV?

iPad Pro (5th generation)

According to the following specifications from Sony https://www.sony.com/lr/electronics/televisions/a8h-series/specifications , the Sony A8H supports AirPlay but the footnote states:


Apple AirPlay and HomeKit will be available via a future firmware update.


You may want to check with Sony support. If they do support AirPlay now (since I interpret your post saying that AirPlay is on in a Sony setting), you won't need any 3rd party app. Also, I don't know of a 3rd party alternative but don't know that there isn't one either.
