Here's what you can do to stream YouTube to a TV.
Before you begin, plug the Chromecast into your TV and connect it and your iPhone to the same Wi-Fi network.
1. Open the YouTube app on your mobile device.
2. Select the video you want to stream and tap the cast icon on your iPhone.
3. Choose your Chromecast device from the list of available devices.
4. The video will start streaming to your TV via your Chromecast device. You can control the playback using your mobile.
A similar procedure can be used for Netflix:
1. Open the Netflix app on your iPhone.
2. Find the video you want to stream and start playing it.
3. Tap the /"Cast/" icon in the upper or lower right corner of the screen.
4. Select your Chromecast device from the list of available devices.
5. Wait for your iPhone to connect to your Chromecast. Once connected, the video will start playing on your TV. And you can enjoy Netflix content in TV resolution!
6. To stop streaming, tap the /"Cast/" icon again and select /"Disconnect./"
Now I'll show you how to cast local content from your phone to a Chromecast. In this case, apps are required because iPhones do not support the Chromecast protocol natively. DoCast is one such app – https://apps.apple.com/app/apple-store/id6446948344?pt119741298&ctyoutube&mt8. It has a simple and elegant interface and is compatible with TVs that support Chromecast. Its main features are iPhone screen mirroring, photo and video streaming.
You can use it like this:
1. Download DoCast from the App Store https://apps.apple.com/app/apple-store/id6446948344?pt119741298&ctyoutube&mt8
2. Open the app and grant the required permissions. DoCast will ask you to use Bluetooth and connect to your home network.
3. Connect Chromecast to the same network and select it from the device list.
4. You will see a pop-up suggesting you to purchase a subscription or use a two-week trial. The developers promise a gift to buyers of a lifetime or one-year subscription, interesting! To get started, you can close the offer and try the features for free.
5. So, the main menu provides options for screen mirroring, photo and video streaming. Let's try the videos. And another authorization should be granted. Now just choose the required video and it will be streamed on the TV.
6. To stop streaming, press the X key.
Replica is an app that can also stream local files to TV from iPhone. It supports Chromecast and has a compact interface. Since Chromecast is not available by default on iPhone, this is very useful. The quality of the molding is satisfactory. If you want to try Replica, follow these steps:
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/screen-mirroring-cast-mirror/id1468495939
1. Install Replica on your iPhone.
2. Grant the requested permissions once you launch it.
3. Turn on your Chromecast. It will appear on the home screen. Select it.
4. Go to Gallery. You may be asked for permission to access files. Let this.
5. Now you can simply open one of your videos or photos, and it will be mirrored via Chromecast!
The Screen Mirroring app offers a similar experience to Replica. Some unique additions include IPTV compatibility and streaming from Google Drive. Plus, there's a virtual whiteboard, which is a fun idea. Let's go:
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/screen-mirroring-smart-tv/id1586624313
1. Get screen mirroring from App Store.
2. As usual, grant all the permissions it needs.
3. The Cast button is at the top left. Tap it.
4. Find your Chromecast in the list and select it.
5. Return to the home screen and tap “Media”. File permissions will be required.
6. Start streaming by selecting one of your photos or movies. So keep browsing!
