# Sending a link vs screen mirroring

Screen mirroring shows your phone’s screen on the TV. Sending a link asks the TV to open the page in its own browser, so your phone is free afterwards — as long as the site works in that browser.

## What you need

- A TV or streaming device with a web browser.
- Internet access on the TV and on your phone. They do not need to be on the same network.
- A phone that can scan QR codes with its camera.

## Steps

1. **Open the TV address.** In the TV’s web browser, go to kkll.li.
2. **Scan the QR code.** Point your phone camera at the QR code on the TV.
3. **Send and open.** Paste the link, tap Send, then select Open on the TV.

## When mirroring fits better

Mirroring shows exactly what is on your phone, including apps that have no web version. It depends on a compatible protocol (for example Miracast, AirPlay or Smart View), and usually on both devices being on the same network.

Because the phone renders everything, it keeps running while you watch, and notifications can appear on screen.

## When sending a link fits better

For a web page or a video site that works in the TV browser, sending the link lets the TV load it directly. You can put your phone away after selecting Open.

## Troubleshooting

### No QR code appears on the TV

Check that the TV is online and that you typed kkll.li exactly. Older TV browsers may not support the features JustOpen.link needs; if the page keeps showing “Connecting…”, try another device with a newer browser.

### The page opens but the video does not play

Playback depends on the website and the TV browser. Some services, including Netflix, do not support TV web browsers. Try the same link in the TV browser directly to confirm.

### The site is blocked or asks me to sign in on the TV

The TV opens the link with its own internet connection and its own logins. Your phone’s VPN, accounts and cookies are not transferred, and JustOpen.link cannot bypass network or regional blocks.
