How to Screen Mirror Stylo 4 Offline: A Comprehensive Guide

Screen mirroring is a fantastic feature that allows you to share the screen of your LG Stylo 4 with another device, such as a TV, tablet, or computer. With screen mirroring, you can display photos, videos, games, and apps on a larger screen, providing a more immersive experience. This guide will walk you through the steps to screen mirror your Stylo 4 offline, without the need for an internet connection.

1. Check Compatibility

Before diving into the screen mirroring process, it is essential to ensure that your LG Stylo 4 and the device you want to mirror to are compatible. The device you wish to mirror to must support screen mirroring and have the necessary hardware (e.g., HDMI or Chromecast) or software (e.g., Miracast or AirPlay) capabilities. Refer to the device's user manual or official website to confirm its compatibility.

2. Enable Screen Mirroring on the Stylo 4

To enable screen mirroring on your Stylo 4, follow these simple steps:

1. Go to the home screen of your Stylo 4 by tapping the home button.
2. Swipe down from the top of the screen to access the quick settings panel.
3. Look for the "Screen Mirroring" or "Cast" icon and tap on it. It usually looks like a rectangle with a Wi-Fi symbol inside.
4. Your Stylo 4 will search for available devices to connect to. Wait for a moment until the list of devices appears on the screen.
5. Select the desired device from the list and tap on it to establish a connection. You may need to enter a PIN or confirm the connection on the receiving device as well.

3. Connect the Stylo 4 to the Receiving Device

The next step is to establish a physical connection between your Stylo 4 and the receiving device (e.g., TV, tablet, or computer). The connection method depends on the type of device you are mirroring to. Here are some common options:

• HDMI Cable: If your receiving device has an HDMI port, you can use an HDMI cable to connect it directly to the Stylo 4. Simply plug one end of the HDMI cable into the HDMI port on your receiving device and the other end into the Stylo 4's USB-C or micro USB port (depending on the Stylo 4 model you own).
• Chromecast: If you have a Google Chromecast device, connect it to your TV or monitor's HDMI port. Make sure your Chromecast and Stylo 4 are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. Open a compatible app on your Stylo 4, and look for the Cast icon (usually located in the app's settings or playback controls) to establish a connection with the Chromecast device.
• Wireless Mirroring: Some devices, such as smart TVs or streaming devices, support wireless mirroring protocols like Miracast or AirPlay. Refer to the user manual or official documentation of your receiving device to understand how to enable and establish a wireless connection with your Stylo 4.

4. Start Screen Mirroring

Once the physical connection is established, you are ready to start screen mirroring. Depending on the device you are using as the receiver, the screen mirroring process may vary. Here are a few general steps to follow:

1. Ensure that both the Stylo 4 and receiving device are turned on.
2. On the receiving device, select the appropriate input/source that corresponds to the port where the Stylo 4 is connected (e.g., HDMI 1, Chromecast).
3. If necessary, navigate through the on-screen menu of the receiving device to locate the screen mirroring or casting feature.
4. Select the Stylo 4 from the list of available devices.
5. Once the connection is established, you will see your Stylo 4's screen mirrored on the receiving device. You can now enjoy your favorite content on a larger screen.
