Honor 20: Airplay - how to use it

Airplay is a technology integrated on Apple devices to send multimedia content like photos or images to other Airplay devices. If you want to use Airplay on your Honor 20 as well, this is only possible by installing additional apps.

How to set up Airplay on the Honor 20

Although Airplay is actually a feature reserved for Apple devices, you can turn an Android device, like the Honor 20, into an Airplay receiver. This is possible by downloading the free Kodi application to the smartphone.

1. Since Kodi is not available in the Play Store, it is first necessary that you download the APK file of the application from the Internet to your Honor 20 and install it.
2. If the installation is complete, please open the Kodi app and go to "Settings" > "Network" in it.
3. Tap on the "Airplay" entry at the very bottom there and allow Kodi to receive Airplay data. If you wish, you can also specify more precisely here who can send content to your device via Airplay as well as set up password protection.
4. Airplay is now available on your Honor 20 and you can send music or videos to the Honor smartphone from another Airplay device such as iPhone or iPad by tapping on the name of your device.

Honor 20: How to send content via Airplay

If you not only want to receive content on your Honor 20 via Airplay, but also send it yourself, you need a suitable app like "AllCast". The basic version of the app is available free of charge for Android and allows you to send photos, videos and music via Airplay or DLNA to compatible devices.
