Using Wireless Screen Mirroring Apps

In case your television or streaming device does not come with built-in wireless screen share functionality, you can download a third-party wireless screen mirroring app from Google Play or App Store on your Android or iOS device like Reflector, Miracast, AirScreen, etc The benefit of third-party apps over in-built ones is that they support a wider range of devices and also, you can mirror your device’s audio along with the screen. To mirror Xfinity Stream to TV, using an app, install a receiver on your streaming device or smart TV and a sender on your phone.

Using HDMI Cable:

As mentioned above, all the options for mirroring utilize a connection over the airways; but, you may also make a connected connection between your phone and the TV using an HDMI cable. This lessens the possibility of time delay over WiFi in the wireless choices. On your phone, however, you will need an HDMI connector like that of more recent Samsung Galaxy devices or an HDMI adaptor for your iPhone that enables HDMI output.

Well, you have it right there. You can now see all the movies, programs, sports, and other material accessible on the Xfinity Stream mobile app on the big screen for a better view using any one of these basic mirroring methods. From catching up on the newest episode of your favorite series to seeing an NBA game that is now live, whatever your content demands is easily mirrored to your living room TV.
