Q: My airplay icon disappeared after latest ios 7 upgrade
After installing the latest iOS 7 upgrade the "Airplay" icon disappeared from the Control Center on both my iphone 5s and ipad 3rd Gen. Is there a problem with the upgrade or am I overlooking something in settings?
iPhone 5s, iOS 7.0.3

Thank you for the clarification!
Yes Airplay requires an AppleTV to be used and the button will show when you are connected to a network that has an AppleTV on it.
To use AirPlay Mirroring, you will need the following:
- iPhone 4S (or later), iPad 2 (or later), iPad mini, or iPod touch (5th generation)1
- Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation)2
- Wi-Fi (802.11a/g/n) network

It looks like that was the missing piece of the puzzle.
Take Care,
Sterling
