Cast for Chromecast & TV Cast

Cast phone content to a larger screen

Cast for Chromecast & TV Cast is a tools app for sending phone content to Chromecast, smart TVs and other compatible streaming devices. It suits households that want one Android app for screen mirroring, video casting and basic TV control rather than separate utilities for each task.

What it can do

The app can mirror the Android screen, making it useful for showing photos, browsing content or putting a mobile game on a television. It also supports casting web videos, so a compatible clip can be moved from the phone’s browser to a larger display instead of being watched on the handset.

• Screen mirroring for displaying the phone in real time
• Video casting from supported websites and services
• Support for Chromecast and a range of smart TV and streaming standards
• Remote-style controls for playback and navigation

Compatibility and everyday use

Alongside Chromecast, the app is described as working with DLNA, UPnP and AirPlay devices, as well as platforms such as Roku and Fire TV. That wider compatibility may make it a practical option for homes with more than one television brand or streaming device. Performance still depends on the phone, television and shared Wi-Fi network, particularly when mirroring for longer periods.

Popularity at a glance

Developed by iKame Applications - Begamob Global, the app has a 3.9 rating from about 952,000 reviews and more than 50 million installs. Those figures point to a widely used casting utility, especially for Android users who want a straightforward way to connect a phone with a television.
