    Excellent, thanks.

    I tried to use one a while ago and it didn’t work on ifollow- but then again I’m not much of a tech head.

    Lol a few quid. £50 for the Lightning to HDMI adaptor and then as its PC World they will try and sell you a Monstor HDMI cable for £50 when its no better than a £5 Amazon basics HDMI cable

    At that point, you are getting into the realms of just buying and AppleTV and using Airplay to it

    It varies from person to person.

    Some think it's brilliant and others have issues with picture and sound quality.

    It's probably worth a go for tenner.

    If your TV is a smart TV can't you just cast the game across from your laptop to the TV ?.

    Not sure but think ifollow can only be viewed on a phone or tablet unless you are casting or using a cable

    I mirror from phone Samsung Galaxy to smart TV.. its simple

    Google mirroring for android or airplay for iPhone / pad

    Be aware though that you will not see anything right up to 1 or 2 minutes before the kick off....

    I think the problem starts when you have an Android TV and a Apple product. The two are incompatible, so you basically have to convert your smart android tv into an Apple TV with either the special lightening Apple device or an Apple TV box. I have an Apple Mac laptop as well, so will have similar problems.

    I don’t know why they have to make it so difficult. Let’s face it who wants to watch a football match on a mini iPad or phone? When all they need to do is develop an app so ppl can download it to their smart tv’s sign in and watch.

    I tried that last season but the picture quality wasn't great and was sticky whereas it was fine on my phone. May try it again tonight.

    I'm not sure if my television is smart or not, but the valves inside the back say 'Marconi' on them.

    I am sure you will all pleased to know I think I have sorted this lol

    I found the gadget in the cable drawer. I bought it ages ago, it is not the Apple product, but it plugs into the Mac, then you attach the HDMI cable, tune the tv into the correct HDMI slot, and everything on your computer you can see on the TV. I haven’t used it for years, because I have always been able to cast to the TV. So hopefully fingers crossed it works with iFollow:unsure:
