How to Display Mirror & Cast Phone Screen to Chromecast (Android Tutorial)
1To mirror or cast your Android phone screen to a Chromecast with Google TV, follow these steps:
Prerequisites
Ensure your Android phone (version 5.0 or higher) and Chromecast are on the same Wi-Fi network.
Your Chromecast should be set up and connected to your TV.
The Google Home app should be installed on your phone (download from Google Play Store if needed).
Steps to Mirror/Cast Phone Screen
Open the Google Home App:
Launch the Google Home app on your Android phone.
Locate your Chromecast device in the list of devices (e.g., labeled as "Living Room TV" or whatever you named it).
Initiate Casting:
Tap on your Chromecast device in the Google Home app.
Select Cast screen or Cast my screen (the option may vary slightly depending on the app version).
Confirm by tapping Cast screen again if prompted.
Alternative Method (Using Android Quick Settings):
Swipe down from the top of your phone screen to open the Quick Settings panel.
Look for Cast, Screen Cast, or Smart View (name varies by phone brand, e.g., Samsung uses Smart View).
Tap it, and select your Chromecast device from the list of available devices.
If prompted, allow permissions to start casting.
Start Mirroring:
Your phone’s screen should now appear on the TV via Chromecast. This mirrors everything on your phone, including apps, videos, or games.
For specific apps (e.g., YouTube, Netflix), you can tap the Cast icon within the app to cast only that app’s content instead of the full screen.
Stop Casting:
To stop, open the Google Home app, tap your Chromecast device, and select Stop casting.
Alternatively, go back to Quick Settings, tap the Cast or Screen Cast tile, and select Disconnect.
