Note that LonelyScreen says it's a free trial, but you can click the nag screen away at any time-it doesn't seem to be a limited trial in our testing (though the screen may re-appear occasionally as you use it).įor quick and dirty mirroring, LonelyScreen should work well for most people. From there, you can maximize the window for a closer look, and click the arrow in the bottom-right to bring up a Record button that lets you capture video clips. Don't see it? Check out LonelyScreen's troubleshooting page (Opens in a new window)-it can occasionally be a bit finicky. Once you tap the Screen Mirroring button, select your LonelyScreen laptop from the list, and your iPhone screen will appear on the PC right away. If you don’t see such a button, you may need to add it from the iPhone's Settings. From your iPhone, open Control Center and tap the Screen Mirroring button. Install and launch LonelyScreen, then click the LonelyScreen title along the bottom to change the name of the AirPlay server (I used "Whitson's Laptop").
It's a barebones app that does one thing: Tricks your iPhone into thinking your PC is an Apple TV. There are plenty of tools that offer this functionality, but for simple free casting, check out LonelyScreen (Opens in a new window). Thanks to Apple's walled garden ecosystem, iPhone users need to download a third-party tool to cast their phone to Windows.
