Apple Users:
With AirPlay, the configuration is simplified for Apple users compared to Android users because all Apple devices feature AirPlay technology including iPhone, iPad, iMac or Mac Book.
1. First, make sure your Zappiti Player 4K player has the latest firmware update (firmware). Unlike updates Zappiti and Zappiti Explorer applications, firmware need to be updated via USB flash memory stick. To check the current version of your firmware, go to the player settings and then in the "About" at the bottom of the page and locate "Build number" which should be:
rtk_phoenix-ENG4. 4 KRT 160 eng.tony.20160406
The number at the end (20160406) corresponds to the version of firmware installed in your player. If the firmware number does not match, please follow the firmware update instructions here:

5. Set the field name by typing a zone name (eg "Zappiti lounge") in the dedicated field.

7. Select "Framerate" ON if you want to display the image transmission rate on the bottom right of the screen. We highly recommend disabling this option (OFF).
8. Choose "Mirroring" ON if you want all your device screen displayed on your TV. Select "Mirroring" OFF if you want to send only the sound.
