Chromecast Content to Your TV

Whether you have an Android phone or an iPhone, just follow these steps and you’ll be sending your phone’s content to your TV in no time. Once you’re connected in this way, the Chromecast icon on your phone will turn blue to show that casting is active. If you want to disconnect at any point, simply tap the Cast icon again, and select Disconnect.

What Can You Cast to Chromecast?

Google maintains a list of applications compatible with Chromecast casting. While there are a lot of streaming services listed there, note many of Google’s own applications are also Cast compatible. That includes Google Chrome, letting you cast any website you visit using the Chrome browser on your phone or tablet, direct to your TV. Other casting options include Google’s Photos app, which lets you cast your photos and videos straight to the TV. If you’re more interested in gaming, Google’s Stadia game streaming service can work over Chromecast for streaming games straight to your TV from your phone or tablet, too.
