Do you think android can cast screen to TV? What do you know about it? If you’re tired of your mobile phone while watching a movie, wouldn’t it be convenient if you can play it on a big screen? Well, you can do this but getting it onto your big-screen TV is not always an easy process. There are lots of choices to select from. The most popular one is – Chromecast.
Well, I personally recommend a Chromecast for casting your iOS or Android device screen to the TV. But it is not the only chocie out there. Over the past weeks, we have examined different methods to mirror your mobile to your TV. From Apple TV to Smart TV to MHL cable, every method has its own cons or pros:
While Amazon FireTV stick is not as best as chromecast, when we talk about streaming, it still works. You can also reach the mirroring option after hitting and holding the Home button on the Amazon Firestick remote.
Roku 2017 and above versions are also compatible with screen mirroring for Windows 10 or Android users. To turn on mirroring on your Roku head over to Home > Settings > System > Screen Mirroring. Once there, choose your preferred way of connection. Then, on your mobile device, move to Settings and look for Wireless Display Options. You should then view the Roku wireless display there. Just tap on it followed by the cast screen to initiate the connection process.
Apple TV offers one of the easy smartphone mirroring options but it comes with a restriction of being able to be connected to only an iPad or iPhone only. You can also tap on the screen mirroring icon in the control bar after swiping up from the bottom of the screen and tapping on your Apple TV’s name. And not just this, you can also record your Apple TV screen using your Macbook.
All in all, when we talk about screen mirroring Chromecast is the king. It works for iOS or Android, without any lag. While Firestick, Roku, and Apple TV are also another best choice if you already have them.
Pros
- Reliable or cost-effective
- Apple TV can record screen
Cons
- FireStick or Roku are not perfect for screen mirroring
