Apple changed their service string to _companion-link._tcp.local for Apple TV. I was not able to Airplay or use Apple TV remote on my iPhone until I added this string as a custom bonjour service. It would be less confusing for users is this service string was added to Airplay vs having to add it as a custom service, plus the number of custom bonjour services that you can add seems to have a hard limit of 5. 
Here is the reddit thread that led me to the fix, see the EDIT on the first post.

Hi @dn828 

Thanks for posting in our business forum.

Is this for the remote on iPhone? It actually does not belong to the Airplay. I searched it and looks like it is mainly for the remote control.
