How to Wirelessly Screen Mirror an iPad with iPadOS 14

This method uses AirPlay and the computer app to wirelessly display an iPad on your computer. If you want to screen mirror your iPad to an Apple TV or other AirPlay receiver, just follow steps 4-6.

Open Reflector on your computer. 

Step 4

Open Control Center on your iPad by swiping down from the top right corner.


Step 5

Tap “Screen Mirroring.”

Step 6

Scroll through the list of receivers and select where you want to mirror your screen. If you’re using Reflector, this will be the name of your computer.

That’s it! Now you’re wirelessly screen mirroring your device with iPadOS 14.

Reflector allows you to share your mobile device screen to videoconferecing platforms, like Zoom, GoToMeeting, Microsoft Teams, Cisco Webex, Google Meet, Slack and Discord.

This method is easy and works great for most people, but it may not be the best for use in professional environments with numerous devices on corporate networks. If you need to set up iPhone/iPad screen sharing at work or school, check out Ditto screen mirroring instead. Ditto allows you to mirror an iPad to multiple Apple TVs simultaneously.

Remember: Mirroring your iPad to an Apple TV or other AirPlay receiver works the same way. Simply select the name of your Apple TV or receiver from the screen mirroring list on your iPad.
