What is AirPlay?

AirPlay is Apple’s wireless streaming technology for transferring content from Apple devices to AirPlay-compatible receiver devices such as speakers, AV receivers, stereo systems, and TVs.

The QuattroPod allows up to four macOS and iOS devices to stream simultaneously to a split screen using the AirPlay protocol — no app required.
