Apple today updated the iOS 17 page on its website to indicate that its AirPlay feature for hotel room TVs has been delayed until next year.
Apple originally said the feature was “coming later this year,” but it now says it will be “coming in an update in 2024.” Apple did not provide a more specific timeframe, but the feature should be added in an iOS 17 update in the first half of next year.
The feature will allow iPhone users to scan a QR code on their hotel room TV to establish an AirPlay connection, allowing them to wirelessly stream videos, photos, and music from their iPhone to the TV. Google already offers a similar feature on some hotel TVs, allowing guests to stream content from their smartphone via Chromecast.
Apple in June said Holiday Inn owner IHG Hotels & Resorts would be one of the first hotel companies to adopt the feature, while LG announced that it would be one of the first hotel room TV manufacturers to support the feature.Related Roundups: iOS 17, iPadOS 17Tag: AirPlayRelated Forums: iOS 17, iPadOS 17This article, “Apple Delays iOS 17’s AirPlay in Hotel Room Feature Until 2024” first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums
