Can’t find your TV

Showpane finds TVs on your Wi‑Fi. If yours doesn’t appear in Devices, work through these checks in order.

  1. 1

    Turn your TV on

    Turn your TV on and put it on the same Wi‑Fi as your iPhone.

  2. 2

    Allow Local Network access

    In iPhone Settings, allow Local Network access for Showpane. Without it, Showpane can’t see screens on your Wi‑Fi.

  3. 3

    Check your network

    Guest Wi‑Fi, VPNs and router isolation can prevent devices from finding each other. Use your main home network.

  4. 4

    Using an AirPlay TV?

    Use the AirPlay row in Devices.
