Stream content on a larger screen with AirPlay
Use AirPlay to stream whateverโs on your Mac mini on the big screenโor use AirPlay to send content to your Mac from an iPhone, iPad, or even another Mac. You can mirror the Mac mini screen on your high-resolution TV screen or use the high-resolution TV as a second display. To do so, connect your TV to Apple TV and make sure Apple TV is on the same Wi-Fi network as your Mac mini. You can also play web videos directly on your high-resolution TV without showing whatโs on your desktopโhandy when you want to play a movie but keep your work private.

Send content to your Mac from other devices. Watch videos, listen to music, and more on your Mac as theyโre being played on your other devices. Mirror your iPhone or iPad on your Mac or extend its display by using your Mac as a secondary display for apps that support it, such as Keynote and Photos. Use your Mac as an AirPlay 2 speaker to stream music or podcasts to your Mac, or use it as a secondary speaker for multiroom audio. Your Mac works with any Apple device, and itโs even easier to connect if the devices share the same Apple Account.
