It is fairly OK in terms of the compatibility across Apple products - as always for the ecosystem. However, the way it works is totally poor - when the apps is closed (either by user or somehow killed by iOS) the airplay connection drops. In opposite, content played by chromecast seems to sustain individually, regardless of the apps status.

Even I am using iPhone and have an Apple computer at home, a chromecast hardware is installed and more frequently used than Airplay.

Do anyone else experience similar as me?

    Oh absolutely. Airplay is a miserable experience. Fast forwarding and rewinding don’t work half the time, and the connection drops randomly when I’m not even touching my phone

    Works fine… you just need to control the device instead of casting to it… well, atleast with HomePods etc.

    When your apps close the connection won’t drop if you use screen mirroring to do AirPlay. Give it a try. 😉
