VideoCast is the browser-based caster that works where the native iOS Cast button stops — now with AirPlay support.\n\nCAST ANY WEB VIDEO TO TV\nStream from any website to Google TV Streamer, Chromecast, Apple TV, or any Google Cast or AirPlay-enabled TV. Smart TVs and media players with DLNA/UPnP work too.\n\nSTREAM WEB MUSIC TO YOUR SPEAKERS\nSend web radio and any audio you can play in a browser to your Google Home speakers or any Google Cast speaker. No separate app needed.\n\nBLOCK ADS WHILE YOU CAST\nBuilt-in ad blocking removes pop-ups, auto-play ads, and video pre-rolls before they reach your TV. Cast without interruptions even on ad-heavy sites. New Malware & Tracking Protection blocks malicious sites — on by default, with per-site controls in the More menu.\n\nFULL REMOTE CONTROL\nSkip, pause, scrub, change playback speed, and adjust volume straight from your phone. Full-screen remote works with the media currently on your TV.\n\nPLAY ON YOUR DEVICE\nPrefer not to cast? Watch your own videos imported from Photos or the Files app right on your iPhone or iPad — with Picture in Picture and background audio.\n\nMULTI-TAB BROWSING\nJump between your favorite sites with real multi-tab browsing. Bookmarks, history, and per-tab controls stay out of your way while you watch.\n\nSHARE PHOTOS & VIDEOS ON THE BIG SCREEN\nPick your own videos, photos, or albums imported from Photos or the Files app and mirror them to the TV for family movie nights and slideshow moments.\n\nWORKS WITH\n• Google TV Streamer (4K) and Chromecast (all generations)\n  Google Home Speaker, Google Nest Audio, Google Nest Mini, Google Nest Hub, Google Nest Hub Max\n• Any TV, soundbar, or speaker with Google Cast (formerly Chromecast built-in) — including Google TV models\n• Apple TV & AirPlay devices\n• Smart TVs and media players with DLNA/UPnP\n\nPREMIUM\nUnlock full ad blocking, per-site controls, unlimited bookmarks, and tab history sync with VideoCast Premium.
