Often you may want to share the content of your iPhone with multiple audiences, such as your friends or family. So, doing that on a bigger screen will bring a better view for all the audience. For that, you have to cast your iPhone screen to Windows OS.
Can You Mirror iPhone to Windows 11 Without Any App?
Windows OS does support free screencasting of intelligent devices. There is a feature called Projecting to This PC on Windows 11, which you have to enable along with the wireless display support. Then you can connect any smartphone to your PC and cast the phone’s screen on Windows 11. When I say any smartphone, the feature is limited to Windows and Android smartphones. It doesn’t work with an iPhone. I tried with my smartphones, to be precise. While I could project my Android phone easily on Windows 11, the same could not be done with my iPhone.

Cast iPhone Screen to Windows 11 Using Reflector
Here is another application called Reflector that follows a similar functional pattern as that of LonelyScreen. When you wish to end the casting, do it by tapping on Screen Mirroring from iPhone control enter. Then tap Stop Mirroring. The trial version of Reflector will have a watermark on it. To remove that, you need to buy the full version of the app. Also, the screen will be cast vertically with the backdrop of an iPhone. The quality will be of high definition on both the Reflector app as well as LonelyScreen.
Screen Mirroring Cannot Discover the Computer. What to Do?
If you are not seeing the computer name on the Screen Mirroring list of nearby casting devices, then make sure you have connected your iPhone and computer properly. Only use Apple’s lightning or USB cable to connect the iPhone to the PC. Disconnecting and reconnecting the devices should work in case the connection was loosely established previously.
Which ScreenCasting App for iPhone is Better?
In my opinion, LonelyScreen is better than Reflector as the former doesn’t put any watermark when you use the trial version. Also, between the two, LonelyScreen has a better and simple UI as compared to Reflector. Keep in mind that there are a dozen of similar apps out there that can be used for casting the screen of the iPhone on PC. Make sure to check its review by genuine users and always download from the application’s official website. Almost all of them are paid apps with limited free usage permission.
