At this year's WWDC,cerita lucah cina 2018 Apple announced a feature that's of special interest for travelers: AirPlay is coming to hotel rooms. Now, LG is the first major manufacturer to make it actually happen.
The idea is simple: Hotel room TVs are often useless, as many travelers these days rely on streaming services which they simply cannot access in hotels. Apple is trying to change that with AirPlay; a hotel guest could simply scan a QR code and be able to access their streaming services on the hotel room TV, as well as share content there.
On Thursday, LG announced the first commercial TV sets that will support this technology.
According to the company, AirPlay will be available to guests in hotel rooms that have LG Pro:Centric Smart Hotel TVs, starting "later this year at select properties."
