Like the first Chromecast, which was brought to market in 2013, the new Chromecast for video plugs into the back of a TV set via an HDMI port, and it mirrors, or casts, content from the Chromecast mobile app to TV screens.

At a glance

Cast the entertainment you love from your favorite device to your HDTV. Chromecast works with iPhone®, iPad®, or Android devices, plus Chromebook, Mac®, and Windows® laptops.

Your phone is your remote

Just tap the Cast button in mobile apps and websites you already use to start casting right to your TV. Use your phone, tablet, or laptop to play, pause, and adjust the volume — all without draining your battery.

Unlimited entertainment on a big screen

Chromecast works with the apps you love, like Netflix,YouTube, Google Play, and thousands more. Choose from over 200,000 movies and TV shows, 30 million songs, sports events, and games.

Mirror your Android phone or Chrome browser

See anything on your Android phone or tablet on your TV, or use your laptop to cast any website from the Chrome browser. If it’s online, you can cast it.

Smooth, steady streaming

Chromecast keeps video resolution high and buffering low with 2.4/5GHz WiFi support and a built-in adaptive antenna system. And because your content is streamed straight from the cloud, your movies and TV shows play without interruption, even if you and your phone leave the room.

Thousands of compatible apps

There's entertainment for everyone – TV shows, movies, music and more. And we're adding more Google Cast Ready apps all the time.

Requirements:

• TV with an HDMI port
• Wi-Fi network
• Wi-Fi enabled supported device

 

What's in the box
