AirPlay Usage Guide

With AirPlay screen mirroring, you can project your iOS device’s screen in real-time to a smart TV. To expand retro gaming visuals to full screen, simply activate your Manic EMU Membership to unlock the exclusive Full Screen Mode (supports external game controllers for an immersive gaming experience on the big screen).


Step 1: Enable AirPlay Mirroring

  1. Open Control Center: Swipe down from the top-right corner (iPhone X and later) or swipe up from the bottom (iPhone 8 and earlier).
  2. Select Screen Mirroring: Tap the Screen Mirroring icon (a rectangle with a signal wave overlay) in the Control Center.
  3. Connect Device: Choose your TV name from the list and wait for the connection confirmation.
Control Center Access Select Mirroring Device

Once connected, your phone screen will sync live to the TV.


Step 2: Unlock Full Screen Mode

  1. Activate Membership
  2. Access Settings: Open the app’s Settings menu and locate the AirPlay Full Screen Mode option.
  3. Enable Feature: Toggle the switch to enable Full Screen Mode, and the game display will automatically adjust to the TV’s aspect ratio.

🎮 Pro Tip: Pair a Bluetooth controller (e.g., Xbox/PS5 controller) for a lag-free gaming experience on the big screen.
