Vizio opens a beta so that users of their televisions can test support for AirPlay and HomeKit

AirPlay with Vizio TVs

As you probably already know, a few weeks ago we saw how televisions were starting to be compatible with AirPlay 2 technology as well as HomeKit, and with this the Vizio brand televisions were incorporated, along with many others that we already told you. Now, the special thing about this firm compared to some of the others, is that Smart TVs from other years will also have support for AirPlay 2 and HomeKit.

In this case, although it is true that the update will take time to reach Vizio televisions, the firm itself has been concerned about users and, in the case that you have a compatible television from the manufacturer, you can test these functions thanks to the public beta that have recently opened.

You can now try AirPlay 2 and HomeKit if you have a compatible Vizio TV

Apparently, if you have a high-end Vizio television from recent years, and more specifically appear in the list that we already show you, you can get ready to try AirPlay 2 and HomeKit with your TV if you want, before it reaches the others, along with SmartCast 3.0 technology.

On this occasion, it is not entirely advisable to do so, because as we indicated it is something in beta, that is, it is still in development, which is why it could be dangerous, taking into account that some functions may not work as they should , among other things. However, it is the same as with Apple's public betas, so If you want, you can install the beta at your own risk, for which you only have to access this link and follow the steps that are described in it.

On the other hand, for all those who are not willing to install the beta on their televisions, say that Vizio has recently clarified that this version it should reach all users through a software update during the second quarter of this 2019, so we will have to wait a little longer, but not too long.
