How to Do Screen Mirroring on Samsung A12

Screen mirroring, also known as screen casting, allows you to wirelessly project your Samsung A12's display onto a larger screen, such as a television or monitor. This is useful for presenting presentations, watching videos, playing games, or simply enjoying content on a bigger screen. This guide will cover the different methods available for screen mirroring on the Samsung A12.

Using Smart View

Smart View is Samsung's built-in screen mirroring feature. It offers a simple and reliable way to connect your phone to compatible Samsung TVs or monitors.

Ensure both devices are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. This is crucial for a stable connection.
On your Samsung A12, swipe down from the top of the screen to access the Quick Settings panel. Look for the "Smart View" icon, which usually resembles a square with a diagonal line.
Tap the "Smart View" icon. This will initiate a scan for nearby compatible devices.
Select the TV or monitor you wish to connect to from the list of available devices. The screen will prompt you for a connection request. Confirm on both your phone and TV.
Once connected, your Samsung A12's screen will now be mirrored on the TV or monitor. You can control your phone as usual, and the actions will be reflected on the larger screen.

Using Wireless Display (Miracast)

Wireless Display, also known as Miracast, is a standard protocol that allows devices to wirelessly connect and share screens. This method can be used to mirror your Samsung A12's display to various compatible devices, including TVs, monitors, and even some laptops.

Enable Wireless Display on your Samsung A12. This option can be found within the "Connections" or "Settings" menu. The exact location may vary depending on your phone's software version.
On your TV or monitor, ensure Miracast is activated. This setting can usually be found in the "Network" or "Connections" menu.
On your Samsung A12, select "Wireless Display" from the available options. Your phone will search for compatible devices nearby.
Choose the desired device from the list. Your phone will connect, and your screen will be mirrored on the chosen device.

Using Third-Party Applications

While Samsung's built-in features provide basic screen mirroring functionality, third-party applications offer additional features and compatibility with a wider range of devices. Some popular options include:

Chromecast: This app allows you to cast content from your Samsung A12 to a Chromecast-enabled device, including TVs, speakers, and more.
AllCast: This app enables screen mirroring to a variety of devices, including Chromecast, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, and smart TVs. It also supports various content types, including videos, music, and photos.
LetsView: This application offers screen mirroring and remote desktop features, allowing you to control your Samsung A12 from another device. It supports both phone-to-phone and phone-to-computer connections.

These apps typically require you to install the app on both your Samsung A12 and the target device. Refer to the individual app's instructions for setup and usage details.
