Vivo Screen Mirroring to TV/PC: 4 Options to Connect and Cast

Like other mobile phones, Vivo is able to bring a bigger-screen-casting experience to its users. But unlike others, Vivo phones seem to have more connectivity and cast screen options, for example, Smart Mirroring, WiFi Direct, DLNA, and others.

We’re going to talk about Vivo screen mirroring methods in this article. Whether you want to screen mirror Vivo to TV or PC, get step-by-step guides below.

What is Smart Mirroring in Vivo?

Speaking of Vivo screen mirroring, the Smart Mirroring feature needs to be mentioned. Smart Mirroring is used to share a phone’s screen with compatible display devices, like smart TVs and monitors. It first came up with the release of Funtouch OS 14 (the international version of Vivo mobile OS ) in 2023.

Some people confuse Smart Mirroring with Wi-Fi Display. In fact, they are the same. One is the former name, and the other is the current name. The feature displayed on your phone depends on whether its operating system is running OS 14 or later.
