You can also check "Supported Projectors" in the app's support menu. • While mirroring your device’s screen, video and audio may be delayed depending on the device and network specifications.

If this occurs, use the mirroring feature ("Mirror device screen") instead. • Animations and screen transition effects, videos, and audio are not played. Use the mirroring feature to play them. • We recommend testing the projection in advance when using this app for presentations. [Using the App] Make sure that the network settings for the projector have been completed. 1. Switch the input source on the projector to "LAN". Network information is displayed. 2.

Features
Read full description

The SMART hardware and software solutions sometimes require access to special websites or ports, for example for functions such as automatic updates or wireless screen sharing. As soon as your smartphone is in the same network as the SMART solution, the SMART ServiceCheck app can test for you whether all of these releases and ports are permitted in the network to be used or whether they are blocked by a firewall. If this is the case, the SMART ServiceCheck app names the corresponding URLs or ports that still need to be allowed in the network so that SMART solutions such as SMART Lumio™, SMART Learning Suite™ or SMART Mirror of the SMART Board® interactive displays works perfectly.
