Airplay - one feature that Apple loses against Google chromecast - eviltoast

It is fairly OK in terms of the compatibility across Apple products - as always for the ecosystem. However, the way it works is totally poor - when the apps is closed (either by user or somehow killed by iOS) the airplay connection drops. In opposite, content played by chromecast seems to sustain individually, regardless of the apps status.

Even I am using iPhone and have an Apple computer at home, a chromecast hardware is installed and more frequently used than Airplay.

Do anyone else experience similar as me?

    It’s also a lot easier to share a lot of pictures by making a cloud folder and sharing a link (Google photos) than trying to airdrop a ton of photos.
