USB-C to HDMI Cast Phone to TV
Plug in a USB-C to HDMI cable and play your photos, videos and music on the TV in a clean full-screen layout. No Wi-Fi, no pairing, no TV app. Rated 4.3 on Google Play.
What it does
- Compatibility checker
- Reads the USB-C port capabilities and tells you whether wired video output will work, before you buy a cable.
- Media casting, not mirroring
- Mirroring shows a small portrait phone on a big TV, with notifications. The app renders photos, videos and music in a TV layout while your phone stays private.
- HD, Full HD or 4K
- Choose 720p, 1080p or 4K output to match the TV and cable. Drop to 1080p if 4K flickers over a long cable.
- Audio on or off
- Send video sound through the TV speakers or keep it on the phone.
- Browser Cast
- For phones without wired output: the phone serves media to the TV's browser over the local network. Nothing to install on the TV.
- Works anywhere with HDMI
- Hotel TVs, meeting room screens, projectors, monitors. If it has an HDMI input, it works.
What it cannot do
- Add HDMI output to a phone without DisplayPort Alt Mode. That is hardware. See which phones have it.
- Play Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video or other DRM-protected streams over the cable. Android blocks this with HDCP.
- Work on iPhone. iPhone 15 and newer mirror natively without an app.
Requirements
- Android 8.0 or newer
- A phone with DisplayPort Alt Mode for wired casting (or Wi-Fi for Browser Cast)
- A USB-C to HDMI cable or adapter, see the cable guide
Frequently asked questions
- Is the app free?
- The app is free to install and includes the compatibility checker. Casting features are unlocked with a one-time purchase or subscription through Google Play, from $5.99.
- Does it work without Wi-Fi?
- Yes. Wired casting uses only the USB-C to HDMI cable. Browser Cast is the optional Wi-Fi mode for phones without wired output.
- Will it work on my phone?
- Only if your phone supports DisplayPort Alt Mode. Check the compatibility list or run the checker in the app before buying a cable. Phones without wired output can still use Browser Cast.
- Can it cast Netflix or Prime Video?
- No. Streaming services block HDMI output on Android through HDCP, and no app can bypass it. The app plays your own photos, videos and music.
- Does it need an app on the TV?
- No. Wired casting works with any HDMI input. Browser Cast only needs the TV's web browser.
- How do I get a refund?
- Purchases go through Google Play. Request a refund from Google Play within 48 hours, or contact us at the support address for help.
