Sony TV is a popular brand of television that offers high-quality displays and advanced features. Screen mirroring is one of the most efficient ways to display the content of your mobile device on your TV screen. In this guide, we will discuss how to screen mirror on Sony TV with iPhone or Android devices.

Step 1: Ensure Compatibility and Connectivity

Before proceeding, ensure that both your mobile device and Sony TV are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. Additionally, check if your mobile device supports screen mirroring. Most Android devices have a built-in screen mirroring feature called “Screen Mirroring,” “Smart View,” or “Cast Screen.” On iOS devices, the feature is known as “AirPlay.” Make sure your devices’ operating system is up to date to ensure compatibility.

Step 2: Enable Screen Mirroring on Your Sony TV

On your Sony TV, navigate to the home menu using the remote control. Look for the “Settings” option and select it. Within the settings menu, find and select the “Network” or “Wi-Fi” option. Look for “Screen mirroring,” “Miracast,” or “Wireless Display” and enable it. The exact wording and location of this option may vary depending on the model of your Sony TV.

Step 3: Initiate Screen Mirroring on Your Mobile Device

On your mobile device, access the settings menu and look for the screen mirroring or casting option. Tap on it to start the process. Your device will scan for available devices. Once your Sony TV appears in the list of available devices, tap on it to establish the connection.

If your smart phone fails to initiate screen mirroring, you can use the Screen Mirroring App by BoostVision, to bring a stable connection between your smart phone and Sony TV.
