AirPlay is a very useful feature iOS that allows users to stream content from their iPhone or iPad to other devices that support AirPlay, for example Apple TV. This means that applications that are not on Apple TV but are on iOS can be easily streamed from the device to Apple TV.
Unfortunately, some applications prohibit the use of AirPlay for playing on TV. For example, Crunchyroll, Channel5 and ITV apps intentionally block feature AirPlay. But, if your device is jailbroken, you can bypass this ban with a recently released tweak.

Jailbreak tweak PremiumPlay allows you to use AirPlay in applications that prohibit it. It connects to applications and enables the feature AirPlay in them, even if they are disabled by default. The tweak is currently supported by the following applications:
- Xfinity stream
- Verizon F IOS
- DirecTV
- Crunchroll
So far, this is a small list, but the developer has promised to add more applications in future updates to the tweak.
When you install PremiumPlay, you don't have to do anything else. The tweak will automatically enable AirPlay in supported apps, and you can easily stream their content to other devices as Apple TV. We advise you to close all these applications, and then start again, so that the function is definitely activated after installing the tweak.
If you don't know how to use AirPlay, it's pretty easy. When you launch media in the app, a button AirPlay should appear. Just click it and the content will be transferred to other devices.
If this button is not present, you can enable it in the control center. Pull it out from the bottom of the screen, then swipe left to go to the music page. Here you should find information about the files that are currently being played. At the bottom, click on the button where it is displayed that the media has been played on iPhone, and a list with devices to which it can be streamed will open. If your Apple TV is configured with AirPlay, click on it in the list, and the media will immediately start playing on it.
If your favorite app is not supported by the tweak, you can email the developer and let them know about it. In the future, he may add it to the update.
