Hey Samsung,

Does the Z Flip5 not fully support screen mirroring like other smartphones? Any time I've successfully made the connection between Flip and TV all I see is a gray screen and, what looks like, a Gesture Bar at the bottom.

However, my Gallery app will fully display on screen. But I'm not able to see other apps, let alone my homescreen display on the TV. My Z Fold5 can execute Screen Mirroring perfectly fine.

Is there a setting I've overlooked? If Screen Mirroring is not fully supported, can it be updated on the Flip5 to fully support it?

Yeah. Those are the basics. That's how I'm able to see the screen displayed in my post.

What apps are you having issue with? I think it's up to the apps developer to make it fully compatible. Most of the apps I been using I see it working in full screen

My home screen does not show full screen and I don't expect it to be full screen as I don't really use the home on the TV as I use it on my phone instead. If you wanted a computer like interface for your phone what about plugging in via HDMI and using the Dex feature

My point is the inconsistency around the Z Flips mirroring to a TV but then not actually showing anything and all other Samsung phones actually mirroring their displays as everyone would expect.
