Originally supported only AirPlay Mirror protocol, now has added support for AirPlay Audio-only (Apple Lossless ALAC) streaming from current iOS/iPadOS clients. There is no support for Airplay2 video-streaming protocol, and none is planned.
macOS computers (2011 or later, both Intel and "Apple Silicon" M1/M2 systems) can act either as AirPlay clients, or as the server running UxPlay. Using AirPlay, UxPlay can emulate a second display for macOS clients.
Support for older iOS clients (such as 32-bit iPad 2nd gen., iPod Touch 5th gen. and iPhone 4S, when upgraded to iOS 9.3.5, or later 64-bit devices), plus a Windows AirPlay-client emulator, AirMyPC.
Uses GStreamer plugins for audio and video rendering (with options to select different hardware-appropriate output "videosinks" and "audiosinks", and a fully-user-configurable video streaming pipeline).
Support for server behind a firewall.
Raspberry Pi support both with and without hardware video decoding by the Broadcom GPU. Tested on Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W, 3 Model B+, 4 Model B, and 5.
Support for running on Microsoft Windows (builds with the MinGW-64 compiler in the unix-like MSYS2 environment).

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.
Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.
Enable snapd
Snapd can be installed from Manjaro’s Add/Remove Software application (Pamac), found in the launch menu. From the application, search for snapd, select the result, and click Apply.
Alternatively, snapd can be installed from the command line:
sudo pacman -S snapd
Once installed, the systemd unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
To enable classic snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between /var/lib/snapd/snap and /snap:
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
