AirPlay is a proprietary protocol stack developed by Apple Inc. that allows wireless streaming of audio, video, device screens, and photos between devices. It is used to stream content from an iOS device to an Apple TV or other AirPlay-compatible device. AirPlay can be turned off on an iPad to prevent it from being used to stream content to other devices.
To turn off AirPlay on an iPad, open the Settings app and tap on the “AirPlay” option. Then, tap on the “Off” switch to turn off AirPlay.
