Hi,

I want to know how to use a USB connection to screen mirror and control my iphone, like I used to with Android and Vysor. Coming over to Iphone was a necessary switch for me recently, but the lack of this android feature is really annoying me.

I don't want to involve WIFI as these are all corporate networks, airplay seems to assume I can ust leap onto any wifi network and share away - whats wrong with going through the USB cable, its more secure, more stable and faster. I just want to do it all through the USB. I'll use WIFI if I could if it wasnt on these other networks but when you create a portable hotspot with your iphone it only acts like a router inbetween 2 other devices - do I need a second iphone to pull this of?

Basically its so I can have my phonescreen on my monitor, work on my phone without being sat there looking at my phone.
 
I take it from no replies this is not possible on an iPhone, if anyone knows otherwise (I have seen lots about screen-sharing its the control aspect that does not appear to be possible).
