Once connected, prepare for the ultimate phone-to-TV experience. Enjoy that silly game on a massive display.
App-solutely Amazing Options
Some streaming apps, like Netflix and Hulu, have excellent casting features. Just open the app on your phone and tap the cast icon. It's super easy and efficient.
The TV will handle the streaming, freeing up your phone for other important tasks, like ordering pizza. Smart, right?
Plus, you can control playback from your phone, pause, rewind, and fast forward to your heart's content.
