Although the AirPlay feature is unavailable for PS4, it doesn’t mean you can’t stream media files from your iPhone or iPad. You can achieve similar functionality by utilizing third-party apps like Screen Mirroring and iMediaShare on your Apple device. To do this, ensure both devices are connected to the same WiFi network. This guide explains two ways to mirror an iPhone screen to a PS4 gaming console.
