Getting a live video feed of an Apple iOS device (iPhones and iPads)

This only works if your apple device and computer are on the same network

1) Visit www.lonelyscreen.com and download the free software
2) Install LonelyScreen
3) Start LonelyScreen and type in a server name by clicking on the text box underneath the monitor icon
4) Enable AirPlay Mirroring on your apple device and set the receiver to the server name that you specified in step 3. You can do this by swiping up to view Control Centre, and clicking on 'AirPlay Mirroring'
5) Wait for it to load until you see your iPhone screen on the LonelyScreen program
5) Open OBS
6) Add a new window capture source and set it to capture LonelyScreen. You may need to crop it


Now the live video feed from your apple device should be displayed in OBS!
Please note that depending on the orientation of your screen on your device (landscape or portrait), the video on the LonelyScreen application will change aspect ratio
