Bad is different from not working. Please describe in some details what happens instead of what you expected.


if Apple thinks everyone’s lying …
  1. This is a user-to-user support forum. Apple doesn’t participate here.
  2. Neither Apple nor we have any reason to think that users with issues are making it up. If you have an issue, then we can look into that seriously, and attempt to help you overcome that.


I’m will consider going to android where there have been no issues like that my kids all android

These arguments are not effective on us. None here are Apple sales people on commission. We’re willing to donate our time to users that may seek assistance, but their choices do not affect us that deeply. I encourage everyone to use the devices that work for them, regardless of manufacturer.


only my wife and I are Apple she will not update iOS seeing what is happening to my phone. she still has iOS 18.1 and everything works fine.

There is a bit of risk to early adopters. If there were issues, then those would experience them first. Some suggest to wait a few days to see what others are experiencing.

However, iOS 18 isn’t new, and the latest update isn’t said to have changed anything on AirPlay. About iOS 18.2 updates - Apple Support


So, please detail what happens instead of what you expected, when trying to use AirPlay. That would be a good starting point to see what we can suggest.

To what model Apple TV box (or other AirPlay compatible device) are you trying to stream using AirPlay?
