The Chromecast Streamer: TV Cast is the official app to get started with the Chromecast, the device that works like a traditional home theater without a monitor or projector.

It's the best way to enjoy your favorite TV shows and movies on a compatible TV or home screen, just with a few simple steps.

To use Chromecast, open the Chromecast app on your device, connect it to your Wi-Fi network and follow the on-screen instructions. You'll only need to connect the phone or tablet to your home network to be able to stream to the TV.

On your home network, open the Chromecast Streamer: TV Cast app, log in with your account and connect the device to the same Wi-Fi network that is connected to the TV you want to stream to.

Once you have connected, you'll see a small indicator on the screen that will tell you the connection status.
