Additional details
Note the following behavior:
- A sharing session using mirroring can last up to three hours. Five minutes before the end of the three hours, a countdown will be displayed at the top right of the screen. The session will automatically close after the countdown.
- Some features like touchback and HD quality are provided by the AirSync Sender app and are not available when mirroring. If you need these features, consider sharing your screen via the AirSync Sender app.

You can zoom in and out, or restore individual screens as needed. Depending on the IFP model, AirSync can accept up to 4 to 6 devices for simultaneous projection.
