AirPlay is a proprietary technology from Apple that launched a decade ago, a technology that makes it possible to transmit audio and video wirelessly to other devices, mainly to Apple TV, even though in recent years this technology has begun to be available on smart TVs of almost all brands.

On the Internet we can find a large number of free tools that allow us to use AirPlay on our iOS device, be it an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, to our Windows computer, however, all of them offer us a series of shortcomings and their operation is not the best, even when for sporadic cases it is a possible alternative.

AirServer

The best way to transmit the video and audio of our device managed by iOS, is through the AirServer application, an application available on the Microsoft Store free and with 30 day trial.

The operation of AirServer is as simple as opening the application on our computer and going to the device from where we want to share the screen, enter the control panel, click on Duplicate the screen and select the name of our team.

At that time, in the AirServer application window, the screen of our device will be displayed, including audio, so it is a fantastic tool if we want to record our games or broadcast them through Twitch or YouTube.

This application, which is not cheap, costs 32.99 euros plus VAT, is the best option on the market to make AirPlay on Windows. If you want quality and you don't have any problem or limitation, this it is the best solution available on the market today.

5KPlayer

Another alternative available, this time free is 5KPlayer. This function is ideal for sharing the screen of our iOS device to show the images or videos that we have stored on our equipment, since if we want to use it for games, the app begins to justify why it is free.

If your idea is to broadcast on YouTube or Twitch, with 5KPlayer you can do it, but the video quality will be very poor, since frame rate stops sometimes and on many occasions the image freezes.
