All Screen Cast

Whether you’re using Roku or an Amazon Fire TV, All Screen Cast supports almost all the known brands. However, recently, many users have been disappointed with its performance. You’ll find many 1- or 2-star reviews on this app because of its glitches. Even though it has over 10 million downloads, the 3.3-star average rating discourages most users from using this casting application.

Google Home

While most people only use the Google Home app to manage their smart systems, you can also use it to cast your Andoird screen with Chromecast-supported devices.

Chromecast

If you’re running an older TV system that doesn’t have screen mirroring features or built-in Chromecast, you can use a Chromecast device. You’ll have to spend a few bucks on the Chromecast device and connect and mirror Android screen to your TV. From there, you can supply power to the device and turn on your TV source to the HDMI port with Chromecast.

Here’s how you can use Chromecast to mirror screen to TV Android.

Power up the Chromecast and connect it to your TV.

Download and install the Google Home app on your phone.Step 3: Add the Chromecast device to your Google Home app.
Tap on the cast icon to start mirroring your Android screen.

Most of the latest TV models have Chromecast built-in. So, you will not have to go through the hassle of purchasing the Chromecast device separately. Use your Google Home app to connect to the desired Chromecast-enabled device and start casting your screen. You can further link many streaming services with your Google account to enjoy a better streaming experience.

Conclusion

You can use these seven casting methods to mirror Android screen to TV. Most people use the Roku Cast options or the built-in Chromecast for their casting needs. However, Chromecast offers limited features, and Roku Cast bombards users with ads. So, you’re only left with FlashGet Cast and Castto as suitable screen mirroring tools. Castto is a decent option when you only use Android phones and have the latest TV system. Otherwise, you’ll also run into casting issues even if you’re using Castto.

Personally, I prefer using FlashGet Cast as it works with iOS and Android devices. Moreover, you can use it to cast to your macOS units. So, you’re not limited by the number of devices you can cast your Android screen to. The unique thing about FlashGet Cast is that it also offers a wired connection.
