Peloton Bikes manufactured after 2016 and the Peloton Tread include Miracast functionality, which allows you to mirror the touchscreen's view to another screen. If your Power button is on the back of the touchscreen your Bike was manufactured after 2016, while if it's on the top it was manufactured before.
Miracast functionality may differ based on the features and functionality of certain third-party hardware.

Some known compatible devices include:
- Amazon® Fire Stick (excluding Amazon® Fire TV 3rd Generation)
- Amazon® FireTV Stick (2nd Generation)
- Asus Miracast Dongle
- Microsoft® Wireless Display Adapter
Connecting
In order to use Miracast on a Bike or Tread:
- Tap the time in the top right of your touchscreen.
- Click on the “Cast Screen” option at the bottom of the menu.
- A list of available devices will be displayed. Click on the device you want to Miracast to in order to connect.
- If you are having trouble pairing an Amazon® Fire Stick, ensure Miracast is enabled on the Fire Stick settings by selecting Settings > Display & Sounds > Enable Display Mirroring from the menu.
Troubleshooting
If you are not able to see any devices please go through these steps:
- Reset your router and try to re-cast your screen. If you are still unable to connect, proceed to step 2.
- Tap "Settings" on the top right corner of the touchscreen.
- Select "Cast Screen".
- Tap on "Advanced Settings".
- Tap the checkbox and wait 30 seconds, then tap the checkbox once again to search for available devices.

- Tap the WiFi icon on the top right of your HD Touchscreen and select "Settings" from the dropdown menu.
- From the new menu, select "Apps."
- Tap the Peloton App from the list of applications.
- "Force Stop" the application, then select "Storage", then "Clear Cache."
