How to turn off screen mirroring

I can see that screen mirroring is on but it keeps buffering and won’t let me turn it off. How can I turn it off?

To force stop a frozen or buffering screen mirroring session on your iPhone, turn on Airplane Mode for 10 seconds to cut the wireless connection, then turn it back off.
