Chromecast supports Netflix, YouTube, HBO GO, Hulu Plus, Pandora, Crackle, Rdio, MLB.TV, Google Play Movies & TV, Google Play Music and Chrome*, and will automatically update to work with a growing number of apps.
Chromecast taps into the same app and browsing experience you're familiar with on your smartphone, tablet, and laptop, so there's nothing new to learn. Just open a supported app, press the cast icon, then sit back and enjoy.
Browse for what to watch, control playback, and adjust the volume using the smartphone, tablet, or laptop you already know how to use.
Chromecast works with Android smartphones and tablets, iPhone® and iPad® devices, Chrome (for both Windows and Mac®), and Chromebook Pixel. Support for other Chromebooks coming soon.
Switch to another app, open a new browser tab, or let your device go into sleep mode while you continue to watch your favorites on the TV, all without draining the battery on your smartphone, tablet or laptop.
With Chromecast, cast a Chrome browser tab with anything from photos to music to video from your Windows or Mac laptop or Chromebook Pixel to your TV at home.
Get started in 3 easy steps: Plug Chromecast into your TV, connect it to Wi-Fi, then cast videos and more from your smartphone, tablet, or laptop to your TV.
Chromecast is designed to plug directly into the back of your TV, slipping out of view. It's a small device in its category, making it easy to set up on any TV in your house.
Friends and family can use your Chromecast with their phones and tablets without having to set up anything, as long as they're connected to the Wi-Fi network at your house.
Chromecast supports up to 1080p video resolution, so you won't lose picture quality from high-def sources.
*Casting from Chrome feature is currently in beta.
