There is no direct airplay in the firmware.
You can use Kodi and turn on airplay in Kodi settings.
However this will only work when Kodi is running of course.

This box is advertised in Beelink´s official website as having support for miracast and airplay. None of them work.
There is an app included called "Media Center". Inside there is an option called "Airplayer". IOS devices can see it but nothing happens when you play a video through it.

BEELINK, Please fix this advertised function or stop advertising something that is not supported.

Similar issue with Miracast support. For some devices it sometimes works and others it won't work at all. Beelink need to look at these features or remove them from the specs.

As described above you can use the built in Media Center app for AirPlay. However, I've had mixed results using this app.

I'm currently using this app from the Play Store: Mirroring360 AirPlay Receiver
Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.splashtop.m360

Google Play Music - OK
Apple Music - OKNFL Gamepass - OK
Play Box HD - OK
LiveStream - OK
YouTube - Not working

There are other (free) AirPlay receiver apps on the play store you can try as well.

Ehm, this app seems to only mirror the image and not control the other device?
It would be appreciated if you can go into details in case you are actually able to control it.

Also, must note all my devices are android based (and of course windows/linux).

Thanks.

You have me at a loss. What exactly do you mean by "only mirror the image and not control the other device"?

AirPlay is used to stream content from your iPhone/iPad to an AppleTV or an AirPlay enabled device. The app I linked above turns the GT1 into an AirPlay enabled device. All control of the streamed media is done on the iOS device (iPhone/iPad).

Hope this clears things up.

Whoops. Thought we were talking about an air mouse app :o

Thanks for clearing things up.

If we're here, does anyone know of any decent air mouse app? :)

No worries. I'm using the Rii i8+ mouse keyboard combo. Not really had the chance to try an AirMouse yet but I'm seeing more people say good things about them. Might have to check one out soon.

I am using Air Play Pin Pro. This mirrors both my iPhone and iPad to my TV Screen. This app is free from the Aptoide Store.
