Even from a computer: the Google Cast protocol makes it so easy to send video and audio (“casting”) that just click on the corresponding icon to instantly appear on TV
Google Play includes a category called “Google Cast”
The original Chromecast and later with Android TV come standard with Google Cast, a wireless protocol that allows content to be shared from a mobile, tablet or computer. The process is simple, as we mentioned in the previous paragraph: just open the corresponding application, click on the Chromecast icon and send anything to the TV. As long as all devices are under the same WiFi network, of course.
Finding Google Cast-enabled apps and games hasn’t been so easy since it had to be specified by the developer in the download tab. To make the discovery process easier, Google has included a search category with all Chromecast-enabled software; applications allowing the screen of the mobile or its content to be sent (“casting”).
To access this category, there are two different methods: from Google Play on mobile or from the direct link via a web browser.
- Open the Google Play store and go to the bottom tab of “Applications”.
- Look at the top area and click on “Categories”.
- Go down to “Google Cast“. Here you have all the Android software compatible with the Chromecast.
- Alternatively, you can access directly from the browser by clicking on this link.
If you open the category on mobile you can browse the different subcategories, it makes it much easier to locate the apps or games you want to download. In the browser, Google hasn’t segmented the section by theme, but it may be more comfortable for you to scroll through the different suggestions.
The applications are compatible with the Google Cast protocol: they are used to send the screen to the Chromecast or Android TV. Some of them can also be installed on the player if the player supports downloading applications.
