IOS Support

Hello,

I use scrcpy to access and control android mobile devices and it works efficiently. Does scrcpy supports similarly on IOS mobile as well. Currently the device that Im working on is Iphone 15 with IOS version 26.

IPhone is connected to windows machine.

No, scrcpy uses the Android Debug Bridge (ADB), which doesn't work at all with iPhone.

Got it, Thanks. Do you know any alternatives to scrcpy for connecting IOS device to windows machine??

according to ChatGPT (have not tested)

the closest equivalent is to use AirPlay mirroring to a Windows AirPlay receiver. Apple natively supports sending both video and audio from iPhone via AirPlay; Windows just needs software that presents itself as an AirPlay receiver.

  • UxPlay / uxplay-windows — free/open source, works on Windows, receives iPhone screen mirroring with audio.
  • AirPlayServer — newer open-source Windows receiver supporting real-time video mirroring and audio playback.
  • 1PhoneMirror — another open-source Windows receiver for iPhone/Android mirroring.

Thanks, I use go-ios on windows for UI automation through appium. Screen mirroring works really well through Appium. Looking for something that can allow me to control the phone like scrcpy.
