Hi Richard, What started this thread was a statement that if you had voice over disabled the airplay button was visible. With voiceover enabled, it was not. That sounded rather stupid and like second-class citizenship. I think the notion of having to go to control center to deal with AirPlay is a bad design decision, and I hope Apple reconsiders it. Mary
