iPhone won't Airplay in full screen

Any time I select full screen in Airplay from iPhone to Apple TV, Samsung or L&G Tv it fails and shows the device's Airplay screen. Works fine in window but stops immediately on maximising / full screen. This looks like a consistent Apple issue. Have they / anyone seen any resolution. 000's of Google searches on the subject with no response.

Try the following:


  • Zoom option on Apple TV 4K or Apple TV HD:

Go to the Settings on your Apple TV and click the AirPlay option. Then click the AirPlay Display Underscan option. Enabling this setting will automatically set your screen mirror at full screen.

  • Zoom option on Apple TV 2nd or 3rd Generation:

Go to the TV's settings and locate the Audio & Video option. You will be able to see other settings under the Adjust for AirPlay Overscan button.


If you'll still aren't getting full screen reach out to Apple Support: Contact - Official Apple Support

I turned my iPhone sideways to enter landscape mode, then enabled Screen Mirror on my Fire TV Smart TV. This got me mostly full screen display of my photos in slideshow playing mode. However, the TV screen display was shaking at times, and the slideshow seemed to be running very fast with fast transitions....not sure what was going on...but this worked for me without any Apple TV being used......good luck

I couldn't find Picture in Picture mode - HOWEVER you also have to tell the television you are watching that you want to have fullscreen mode - I tried this for ages both with the Apple TV and LG TV was using and the LGTV overrode the full screen mode as it was defaulting to the safari pop out. Once both APPLE Tv AND LGTV were full screen mode it worked


What would be useful would be an option in safari for full screen mirroring :)
