How to use Tap View and Multi View

In order to use Tap View, you need to turn on the Tap view feature in the SmartThings app on your phone.

Step 1. On your phone, open the mobile SmartThings app, and then tap Menu icon (the three horizontal lines).

Step 2. Tap Settings, and then swipe to Tap view. Tap the switch to turn it on.

Step 3. Bring your phone closer to the TV, and then tap the Allow phone presence detection notification when it appears on your phone screen.

To avoid damage the device accidentally, you need to tap gently. Tapping your device on the screen or corner of the TV directly can cause serious damage on the screen. You can add a protective case to your phone for extra security if needed. For best results, you should tap the back of your phone against the top or side of your TV frame.

• Do not tap on the screen and the corners.
  
• Have your smartphone case covered and tap lightly on the outer frame.
  

The method of using Multi View is different depending on which device is connected to the TV.

For example, in order to watch the screen of a mobile device or a PC in Multi View, just connect the device with mirroring (Different by OS: Smart View/Screen mirroring/Airplay2/Project to a screen). Also, If you want to watch the screen of external device such as game console in Multi View, go to Select Content Menu and select the device from the list. You can see more Multi View screen combinations below, and you can also select and set the contents of each screen by selecting the right and left screens.

• Select Content: Choose the content that will be displayed on the left or right side of the screen.
• Watch Mobile/Camera: Mirror or cast your phone’s content to the TV screen through Smart View/Screen mirror button on Android mobile or Airplay2 button from iOS device. Mirror Laptop/PC screen through Project to a screen feature. Select connected SmartThings camera or you can select a connected Webcam.
• Screen Size: Adjust the sizes for both screens to suit your viewing preference. For instance, you can place the smaller window in the top right corner or use split screen view to see both screens equally.
• PIP (Picture in Picture) Position: Select the position of the smaller screen when it’s displayed on the main screen. You can choose the top left and top right corners or the bottom left and bottom right corners for the smaller screen. If you don’t like where you placed the smaller screen, you can always change it later.
• Sound Output: Connect your Bluetooth/Wireless sound devices for each window. 2 people can enjoy each screen by connecting their earbuds/headphones to each screen.
• Sound Distribution: Select this option to hear the audio from both screens at once. The TV and external device speakers will play sound simultaneously.
  

1. Mobile screen: When you mirror a smartphone, you can see the mirrored phone on the right scree of Multi View. You can mirror photos, videos, and messages to enjoy on a larger screen.
2. TV or PC screen: When you mirror a PC, cast from an TV App, or an IoT camera, Multi View screen is divided evenly. For example, you can play a game on the left screen while watching a game tutorial video from your laptop on the tight screen.
