Cast for Chromecast & TV Cast

Cast your phone to a larger screen

Cast for Chromecast & TV Cast lets Android users send phone content to a Chromecast, smart TV, or other compatible streaming device. It is suited to people who want to watch mobile videos on a television, mirror their phone display, or use a phone as a basic remote control without switching between several tools.

What it can do

• Screen mirroring: Display the phone’s screen on a connected TV for presentations, photos, browsing, or compatible games.
• Media casting: Send supported videos and other media from the phone to a larger display.
• Web casting: Cast videos found while browsing the web rather than keeping them on the phone’s smaller screen.
• Device support: The app is designed to work with Chromecast and a range of smart TVs and streaming platforms, including DLNA, UPnP, AirPlay, Roku, and Fire TV devices.
• Remote controls: Use the phone for playback and basic navigation when a physical remote is unavailable.

Connection and everyday use

The phone and receiving device generally need to be connected to the same local Wi-Fi network for discovery and casting. Performance can vary with network quality, especially during screen mirroring or high-resolution playback. Extended mirroring may also use more battery because the phone is capturing and transmitting its display continuously.
