Open the app on your iPhone. Look for a cast icon - it usually looks like a rectangle with a Wi-Fi symbol.
Tap the cast icon and select your LG TV. The video will start playing on your TV.
You can use your iPhone as a remote control! Pause, play, and adjust the volume.
It's like having a personal movie theater! All controlled from your pocket.

Troubleshooting Tips
If AirPlay isn't working, double-check your Wi-Fi connection. Restart both your iPhone and LG TV. It's the tech equivalent of "have you tried turning it off and on again?"
Ensure your LG TV's software is up to date. Outdated software can sometimes cause connection issues.
With HDMI, make sure the cable is securely connected. Try a different HDMI port if you're having trouble.
So, what are you waiting for? Turn your LG TV into a giant iPhone display. Get ready for some seriously fun screen time!
