RickG16 Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 I'm after an app which lets me watch content from my smart phone - streaming etc... on a TV monitor without having to hook up an HDMI lead etc. Can anyone recommend a decent one? My only previous experience of something like this was that it didn't work. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rbkk Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Google Chromecast is better. I got mine at an AIS shop. (Generation 2 is the current version.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phuket Man Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Original Google product versus a cheap Chinese knockoff. It may well work but I prefer to pay the extra and get the real thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wgdanson Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 However be aware that a Chromecast will not work if you are using a VPN on your phone. It will via Mobdro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
