 Hello everyone, this is Amit Dan of amitdan.com You're watching one of my internet and technology videos and today I'll talk about how to cast your Android phone screen to your TV So before you start casting your phone screen to your TV You need to make sure you have some of the stuff and which I'll show you right now So here I have some index cards where I'll mention what you need before you start casting a screen So the first thing you need to make sure that you have Android version 5.0 or above if you have purchased your phone after 2014 so most likely you're going to have Android 5.0 which you can easily check by going to phone settings and then a belt and Most likely you're gonna have that but if you don't have that then you need to upgrade to Android 5.0 or above and Then you're going to need some sort of hardware. For example, it could be a Chromecast or Google TV with Chromecast or other Hardware or casting devices and then if you have a smart TV, which is just a TV with an internet connection That can cast your screen as well I'll talk about this a little bit later and then also you need to have a Google home app installed on your Android phone And the most important thing that you have to make sure that you are on the same Wi-Fi network as your phone and your TV So once you have this then you can start casting your screen If you have been using any Google smart home devices, it is likely that you already have Google Home app on your phone If you do not have that then you have to install that on your phone And I'm going to show you how it looks like Google home Application is actually right here. So it looks like your home and it's called Google home So you have to have this this application installed on your phone if you do not have that then you can go To your Google play and install Google home app and also you need to have a Chromecast store So let me just talk about assuming that you have set up your Chromecast on your TV And you have installed on your Google home then how to cast your screen and up your Google home application And you have to turn on your TV and Then you're going to see all your devices which you have installed or which are able to you know cast your Phone screen, so we are working with the Chromecast which we have it right here So I want to just you know click on Chromecast and then It's going to take you to a separate screen and on this screen if you look on the lower left Button then you can see that there's a section or there's a button like cast my screen And this is where you need to press to cast your Screen or to cast your phone screen. So for example if I press it here right now then It's telling me that you know cast to mirror device Mirroring lets you cast your phone and tablet the screen and audio to your TV or speakers and then cast the screen So you're going to get this warning. So basically what it tells you that you know Any sensitive information can be displayed on your TV or where you're casting So just to make sure of that because there might be information such as passwords payments or anything So if you just you know click start now and then it's telling you that you know, it's already casting your screen to The device For example here if you want to stop it then it's saying that you know stop mirroring so for example, you can see that you know I'm casting my screen on the TV and Basically, it's going to show whatever you're looking at on your phone on your TV so let's move on to some alternate ways if you do not have any Chromecast or Google devices or Google TV then still you can cast and I'm going to talk about that There's another way you can cast your screen from your Android phone to your smart TV You don't need any Chromecast or any Google TV or any other devices In order to do that you have to change your source on your smart TV to cast a screen Then you have to just you know follow the instructions on the screen Which I'll not go into detail and then if you don't have a smart TV or if you don't have you know Chromecast or anything then still you can cast your screen which you will Be able to do if you you know install a screen mirroring app on your phone And if you go to Google play and then just search for screen mirroring app or screen casting app It'll give you a bunch of applications and you can just you know try which one works for you and then You can also cast your phone screen to your TV using other streaming devices For example Roku or there are many other so that's another option And then if you don't want to do any of these then you have another option Which is the old way would be wire connections but this is a bit complicated because you have to have a HDMI adapter and have to attach HDMI cable to your TV and then you have to attach the other part of the cable to the adapter and then you have to attach the USB C or micro USB to your phone based on what type of phone you have So you may need to buy a micro HDMI adapter or USB C HDMI adapter So this works too, but this is a little bit complicated. So I don't recommend this one So there are many ways to you can cast your screen another Example I would like to show you that you know You don't have to even go to Google home to start casting a screen if you just you know go to your phone settings Then you're going to have an option right here Which it says cast the screen and if you don't see that option in here Then just click on the pencil and then you're going to see that you know one of the Option or one of the buttons here is going to be cast a screen So you have to just you know put it from here to here and if you just click on the cast a screen then it will Give you the option to cast a screen just like the way we reached before from Google home play So that's all I wanted to talk about thank you for watching this video Forget about subscribing to this channel forget about liking this video.
