Some apps don’t play audio on TV when the silent mode is turned ON on your iPhoneor iPad. To stream audio from these specific apps from your phone or tablet, you need to turn silent mode OFF.
To turn off silent mode and bring your iPhone back to ring mode, you can either use your phone’s physical switch or the Control Center. We’ll show you both ways to disable the silent mode.
1. Use the Ring / Silent Switch
All iPhones and some iPads have a ring or silent switch on the left side of the device just above the volume buttons.
If your iPhone is currently in silent mode, then behind this switch, you will see orange color.
To disable silent mode and enable ring mode, flip this switch once so that you don’t see the orange color anymore.
2. Use the Control Center
If your device doesn’t have the ring / silent switch or it’s not configured to use the silent/ring switch for orientation lock, use Control Center.
To use the Control Center to turn mute OFF: on your iPhone/iPad, drag from the top or bottom to open the control center. Ensure that the ringer icon has white color, as shown in the image below.
If the icon is not white, tap on it once and the icon will turn white.
