Steps to AirPlay to Firestick Using AirScreen
Firestick has built-in cast support but not AirPlay. However, you can install a third-party application like AirScreen on Firestick to set it up as an AirPlay receiver. The AirScreen app is natively available on the Amazon Appstore, so you can install it directly and use it without a subscription. For wireless streaming, ensure your Firestick is connected to the same WiFi as your iPhone. The section below demonstrates the procedure for mirroring videos from an iPhone to a Firestick.
- Open Appstore
Press the Home key on the Fire TV remote. On the main page, scroll to the right and highlight the Appstore icon. Once highlighted, press OK on the Fire TV remote.

Type AirScreen in the search field and search for the app. Tap the AirScreen icon below the Apps & Games section.

- Enable AirPlay on the AirScreen app
