Screen Mirror on Google TV from Mobile

To natively cast to Google TVs from your Android device, you can use the "Screencast" option on your Android smartphone, but this only works for your Google Pixel phones or Android phones that use the built-in Google Chromecast feature. Just open 'Quick Settings', and tap the Screencast option (or Cast, SmartView, Screen Mirror).

If you are not sure about the built-in casting feature on your cell phone, you can use the Google Home app that works for both Android and iOS devices. Google TVs are a step above standard Android TVs in terms of user interface and functionality, but it retains Chromecast capability.

But before you can cast Android/iOS to Google TV, you have to add your TV as a device to the Google Home app. Additionally, both your Google TV and mobile device need to be on the same Wi-Fi network.

Step 1.Download the Google Home app on your Android device.

Step 2.Once installed, open the app and log in to the same Google account on your Google TV.

Step 3.Select the 'Devices' tab.

Step 4.Select the '+ Add' button.

Step 5.Select 'New Device'.

Step 6.Select a 'Home'.

Step 7.If prompted with an 'Allow Nearby Devices' pop-up, allow it as the app requires it to find other devices on your network.

Step 8.Wait for the app to search for your Google TV.

Step 9.If the app can't find your TV, you'll be redirected to a 'What are you setting up?' page. Scroll down and select 'Chromecast/Google TV'.

Step 10.Select your Google TV from the list.

Now that you've linked your Google TV to your mobile device, you can start casting:

Step 1.Open the Google Home app.

Step 2.Select 'Devices'.

Step 3.Tap and hold your Google TV's tile until a pop-up menu shows up.

Step 4.Select 'Cast'.

The only real downside to this method is it only works with mobile devices.

You can't use the same method on your Windows PC or MacBook. Comparatively, this is also a more convenient method since your devices are already linked, whereas, with other methods, you may need to start a new connection every time you use it.

    I am disappointed with my decision to buy movies from Google. The app could be called "Basic TV" as it lacks playlists, the ability to resume from different devices, and any indication of the movies currently being watched on a specific device. Where did the forced subtitles during foreign dialogue scenes go? And what happened to the informative info cards? These features have vanished from my library, and I find this concerning. What will they remove next? Now even bonus features have been taken away.

    I am an enthusiastic user of this app, having amassed an extensive library of movies and shows on it. This platform simplifies content storage, so even after multiple phone mishaps, I effortlessly accessed all my media on a new device without any hassle. The convenience of avoiding scratched DVDs and storage concerns is a major plus. Streaming is seamless with minimal interruptions. The vast array of available content ensures that I always find what I am seeking. In conclusion, my admiration for this app knows no bounds.

    I am awarding another 5-star rating because the app, which I have always favored, has been improved to prevent content from disappearing or moving on its own. Great work, team! This reliable app fulfills all of my requirements, and I appreciate the ability to download shows or movies for offline viewing.

    I appreciate the app's sleek UI compared to its counterparts. It's helpful that it indicates media availability on other platforms. However, I'm frustrated by its habit of replaying episodes in the "continue watching" section instead of proceeding to the next unwatched episode. Additionally, it lacks convenient options to fast forward or rewind episodes in progress or view the episode list. As a side note, I've downgraded my rating due to the lack of app enhancements seen over the last year.

    I am highly impressed with the app—it's fantastic. My enthusiasm for Google TV stems from the vast array of TV shows and movies it offers. Not only can you purchase the latest releases, but there are also enticing deals available. Additionally, you have the option to download your favorite TV shows and movies. Google truly excels in providing exceptional content. Personally, I would rate it a perfect 10 out of 10 for its high-definition quality. For further clarity, my name is Peyton Shake, and Ashley Chimney are regular users of the app and share my sentiments towards it. I strongly recommend that more individuals should consider downloading this app as it deserves top marks for its outstanding features. Moreover, there are opportunities to access complimentary movies as well.

    The remote feature has been hidden, preventing users from creating shortcuts and requiring them to navigate through advertisements. Furthermore, it no longer serves its intended purpose of waking the device. What was once a dependable app for Google/Android TV remote control has regrettably been rendered less convenient. Previously, it was even an option for a home screen shortcut, which showcased its usability.

    The platform is excellent, and the user interface is intuitive. I have a suggestion to improve it: consider adding a "coming soon" section. This would allow users to stay informed about upcoming digital releases on the app. Thank you for considering this idea!

    So far, I'm satisfied with the latest update, but I recommend conducting further investigation to determine if it meets your standards. The new update enables more functionality within the app. With the frequent emergence of new streaming sites, it consolidates everything into a single platform, allowing you to conveniently watch content without switching between multiple apps. Overall, it's a pretty decent update. Although I plan to upgrade to the newer Chromecast, I'm hopeful that it will still be compatible with my older model.

    This app frequently loses connection and displays an error screen with the only option to click "retry," which is inconvenient. It would be better if the app automatically retried the connection instead of requiring manual intervention. Additionally, there are problems with the app not remembering the playback position for shows and movies, sometimes causing them to go back up to 40 minutes. Furthermore, the app crashes frequently, adding to the overall frustration.
