You may want to regularly stream the image from the phone to the television.
You can use several solutions for this, of which AirPlay for iOS users is the most obvious. However, several systems are available. Think of Chromecast TV, Amazon Fire TV and Android TV. In addition, television manufacturers often have their own implementations. The creators of Replica have created an app that allows you to project the contents of the phone to different devices.
A variety of content is supported for projection. You can view photos, but also stream (online) videos to the television. Replica is particularly notable for its user-friendliness. You set up the connection with the external television in a few steps and you don’t have to configure much. In practice, the connection works stable: there is hardly any delay and the audio is neatly synchronized with the image. In practice, you cannot project all media to the television. Images protected with DRM (Digital Rights Management) are blocked and display a black screen.
The support for streaming the images to the entertainment system in Teslas is striking. This connection can be set up if you have a Tesla with MCU2 hardware. Earlier versions are not supported.
