AirPlay does not directly go to other phones. AirPlay is a proprietary wireless streaming technology developed by Apple, and it is primarily designed to work within the Apple ecosystem. It allows you to stream media from an Apple device, such as an iPhone, iPad, or Mac, to other compatible devices like an Apple TV or AirPlay-compatible smart TVs and speakers.
While AirPlay is not natively supported on non-Apple devices, there are some workarounds and third-party apps available that can enable AirPlay-like functionality on other phones or devices. These apps typically require installation on both the sender and receiver devices and may not provide the exact same seamless experience as using AirPlay on Apple devices.
For example, there are apps like AirServer or Reflector that you can install on a Windows PC or Android device to receive AirPlay streams from an iPhone or iPad. These apps essentially turn your non-Apple device into an AirPlay receiver, allowing you to mirror or stream content from an Apple device to your non-Apple device’s screen.
However, it’s worth noting that these third-party solutions may have limitations or compatibility issues, and the streaming experience may not be as smooth or reliable as using AirPlay on Apple devices. Additionally, since these apps are developed by third-party developers, they may require separate purchases or have different features compared to the native AirPlay functionality.
While AirPlay is not directly available on other phones, there are third-party apps and workarounds that can provide similar functionality on non-Apple devices. However, it’s important to consider the limitations and potential differences in performance compared to using AirPlay on Apple devices.
