I tried to connect my phone s22 ultra to my Samsung TV. 
It connected, but on my phone it went to half screen on the left top corner and froze.
I was unable to restart/ turn off the phone.
I couldn't turn mirroring off on smart switch.
My son managed to sort it somehow but I can't use smart switch now without worrying.
I like to see my pictures and videos on tv.
Can anyone.help?

This may have been a one-off, you may want to try connecting your phone to your TV to see if it happens again.

Also, make sure your software is up to date on your phone by going to Settings > Software update > Download and install.

Then, check your TV's software is up to date by going to Menu > Settings > Support > Software update > Update now.

@Jasmin_Bzr: Next time you connect to your TV via Smart View, please try heading to Settings > Advanced Features > One Handed Mode, and disable this option (if applicable). If this doesn't help, and if your TV is a Samsung model manufactured after 2016, you may wish to try screen mirroring via the SmartThings app to see if you notice an improvement.

@AndrewL well I did it. The one hand was off but  the problem is still there.I checked all the checklists of smart view and every thing was in order. It's a bug I think. Even I updated the Samsung TV. I paid a lot for having this phone and it's lovely. I used a A series before.But it is really upsetting me and I think it's not functional for me. I don't know what to do.
