Hi all - hoping someone can help here. I've recently got a new TV - lovely 65" Bravia 4K. Very happy with it. Except, it works with Miracast, or seems to be able to work with Googlecast. But it can't without an extra device seem to do Apple AirPlay.
I know I can fix the issue by getting an Apple TV (2nd gen or later, I think). But I already have Virgin, Netflix, Amazon, all the catch up services - more channels than I can shake a stick at, so I'm not interested in all the features of Apple TV - I just want to be able to show photos, screen images etc from my iPad/iPhone without using a cable adapter and trailing a long HDMI cable across the room.
Does anyone know if any of the "sticks" you can find are suitable - seen various things on t'internet advertised that claim to do the job for about £15, but I'm not sure what will work? Or alternatively is there a stable app I should install to do the same job from the iOS side?
TIA
