Cast for Chromecast & TV Cast is a versatile casting solution for Android users who want to stream locally stored videos to their television. The app works with Chromecast, smart TVs with built-in casting support, and other compatible devices, making it useful for movie nights or sharing personal videos on a larger screen. It supports a wide range of video formats—including MKV, AVI, and MP4—which reduces the need for time-consuming file conversions. Users can browse their phone's storage directly through the app's file explorer, select a video, and cast it with minimal buffering. The interface includes playback controls, subtitle support, and the ability to adjust aspect ratio. Some reviews note that connection stability can vary depending on the Wi-Fi network, and the free version includes ads. However, for most users, it handles local media casting reliably and eliminates the need for cables or external drives.

“I’ve tried several casting apps, but this one actually plays my MKV files without converting them first. Works great for movie nights with subtitles.”
