Smart means it is connected to the internet, and has the ability to install "apps" like Netflix, pandora etc. Saves you the expense of buying a secondary device. Now some fo these smart TVs are quite slow running these apps because the hardware inside them is not as good as what get with an Apple TV or a Roku, that's why I recommend to friends to get a standalone device to run the apps.
If you want to wirelessly cast videos/pictures from your ios device to the TV, then the apple tv is your only answer
