Weird iPhone lock screen (screenshot) - monitor/screen symbol?

[sapsjr]

Can someone please tell me what this means? It doesn't mean screen sharing or Anything like that right? I've seen it twice and knowing what it is would put my mind at ease. Thanks

It's the AirPlay icon. Nothing to be worried about.

My worry is...I don't use AirPlay and there is a wireless hacker in my neighborhood . I recently did a dfu install.

Is this something that happens without my knowledge?

Are you on your own WiFi network, and is it password protected? (WPA2 to preferred)

I disabled wifi about a month ago but the first time this happened I was miles away from my house.

I just reenabled wifi with a strong wpa2 password and i saw it again earlier today.

Anyone able to do this remotely? I've never turned AirPlay on and don't own an apple tv.

Hehehe i got these too long ago when ios5 beta i though it was a new option because ive never used airplay

Try doing a Network Settings reset and then setting up your wifi on your phone again.

When you are in wifi and double tap in lockscreen you will get the airplay option if you have apple tv etc in range , if not it will display iphone or ipad its a error i think and nothing to worry BUT if it display a device you dont own change wifi password or limit the connection by m.a.c address , you can also select option in your modem so your signal can only be access manual if you know the name.
