I am having same issue since upgrading to IOS 16. I have an iPhone 11Pro Max I used for years with an Apple HDMI to lightning connector connected to HDMI port of the projector to steam Netflix or Prime movies to an outdoor screen . Worked fine for last two years but since IOS upgrade the projector now merely says “ no signal detected” . definitely an IOS issue because nothing has changed with cables and projector configurations.


Glad to see many are having similar issues and this isn’t my imagination!

Plug a Lightning Digital AV Adapter or Lightning to VGA Adapter into the charging port on the bottom of iPhone. Connect an HDMI or VGA cable to the adapter. Connect the other end of the HDMI or VGA cable to the monitor, TV, or projector. If necessary, switch to the correct video source on the monitor, TV, or projector.
