Samsung today announced that it will roll out AirPlay support for its Hotel Room TV series, allowing iPhone and iPad users to wirelessly stream videos, music, photos and more from their device to their in-room TV.
This feature lets you scan a unique QR code on your hotel room TV to establish an AirPlay connection, allowing you to wirelessly stream content from your iPhone or iPad. Once the pairing process is complete, your device will also automatically connect to the hotel Wi-Fi network. Device must be updated to iOS 17.3 or iPadOS 17.3 or later.
AirPlay to hotel room TVs works with apps and services like Apple Music, Apple TV+, Apple Arcade for gaming, Apple Fitness+ for workouts, and more.
Samsung said that no personal information is ever stored or saved for this AirPlay feature, and the paired device is automatically deleted when you leave the hotel.
Samsung has not revealed which hotel chains will offer its AirPlay-enabled TVs. The feature launched earlier this year on LG hotel room TVs at select IHG Hotels & Resorts properties in the U.S., Canada and Mexico, with more locations to follow.
Google has long offered a similar Chromecast streaming feature on many hotel room TVs that works with both iPhones and Android devices.
