Chromecaster: Get Streaming TV for Negative User Reviews
✓ Not working after updateAfter the most recent update the media link won’t load and play on the tv. It still connects and tries to load but keeps failing. Very frustrating..Version: 2.3
✓ IntrusiveOffers in app purchases. Yes it certainly does, it feels like it offers them 15 times every 30 seconds. NO! I will not be brow beaten..Version: 3.4
✓ DONT BUY PREMIUM OR DOWNLOAD THHIS APP😤Hello , sorry but this app has robbed us 4 times. We been trying to work this app but it has failed 4 times. We did are best to give this app another chance the 1st time we got it we bought it 3 times ! Which costed $20 each! And then when we tried to start casting it said “Buy premium” and we did so how is this possible. Now today I bought it to give it last chance in my phone , sadly I bought it and it didn’t work! Please don’t buy the subscription! Don’t waste ur time or money btw when u try the 3 free trial it does work to make u feel like it does! It doesn’t !.Version: 3.2
✓ Not that’s good,At work as long as the telephone screen is on what’s the screen goes black the pictures of freeze no good.Version: 4.3
✓ RubbishFree to get but doesn’t work unless you sign up to pay after 3 days. I deleting..Version: 3.2
✓ Tv cast chromecastI paid $34.99 for lifetime access for this app but doesn’t work for me.when I search any web videos on it does not show any chromecast link to connect to my tv. Very frustrating.Version: 3.7
✓ BadPaid for an upgrade so as to avoid ads and stuff but it didn’t upgrade and they took my money. Also the app keeps getting stuck and closes by itself. Ya’all fix and I want my goddam money back..Version: 1.2
✓ DisappointingDon’t waste your money, this app is average at best, faqs don’t match app. Couldn’t get it to stream from a web site. Wish I had never purchased.Version: 4.6
✓ Poor poor poorAdvertises that you can cast videos fromm google drive - you can - but only with the pro version - £4.99 per week or £20! No thanks.Version: 1.5
✓ Worst don’t downloadIts the worst app. I paid for lifetime and when i use it its very slow plus its not even full screen. What a joke..Version: 4.6
✓ Гавно платное не работаетГавно платное не работает.Version: 3.4
✓ Too many ads!!Downloaded the app and it connected fine to my smart tv from my iPhone XS. Problem is too many ads, I managed to play my music just fine but the minute you exit the app or the music section you get bombarded to upgrade. Ended up deleting after less than 10 minutes.Version: 3.6
✓ Refund pleaseHi there, this app doesn’t meet my needs as I thought it would allow me to share different apps I was using on the tv. I need this function for education purposes. As a teacher I cannot afford this app when it does not meet the need. There was no subscription option offered as a trial and as I am within 12hour of downloading I would like a refund to my credit card. Reference number MLXZ8XBQKZ Thank You, Waveney Bryant.Version: 2.7
✓ Not worth downloadingIt asks you to weekly payment of $7. Scam. Do get fouled..Version: 3.5
✓ Trial ScamI selected the 3 day trial offer but it automatically charged me the full subscription price. Their contact us service doesn’t work so I can’t contact them to seek a refund..Version: 3.8
✓ Only works when it wants to.Very poor app. I thought it would be more reliable than the app which comes with the chrome cast but it is not. I have a high speed internet connection on a BT router, which is pretty ubiquitous in the UK, and a mid range Panasonic TV. But this app only sometimes works on one chrome cast dongle in the house and now will not connect to the other. Particularly annoying when needing it most during lockdown to get school classes cast from phone or iPad to TV for my son to stay engaged. Waste of money..Version: 2.8
✓ Didn’t work, and they don’t respond to emailsThis app worked for about 5 minutes. I’ve been trying to get a refund for several weeks without any response. I strongly suggest looking elsewhere. Avoid this app..Version: 3.4
✓ Does not work in portrait - uselessAfter impulsively and imprudently buying a lifetime subscription instead of a trial, I discovered that trying to use this to mirror something full screen by holding my iPhone in “portrait” mode didn’t work. Don’t fall for this. It’s useless for the most likely use at least I’d have for this - using a chromecast with websites and other apps not natively containing a chromecast interface..Version: 3.2
✓ It’s telling me I have to pay again not happy with this device at allAll I wanted was to be able to watch my movies from my phone on the tv and I paid the life time fees ones and now your telling me I have to do it again?.Version: 3.4
✓ CheomecastThis has driven me mad today. Every time I try it will only find my old tv, in use in a bedroom, and sees but will not connect to my primary tv. So cannot recommend. When I try ‘conact us’ it wants me to reconfigure my email, which functions perfectly well. Very dissaponted and annoyed.Version: 3.4
✓ Grumpy user!!!!I have had real problems with this app but more importantly I have found it impossible to contact support. Can someone please contact me!!!.Version: 4.0
✓ Not good at allNot good for streaming web browsers, all the pop ups won’t let you go back to actual page, chrome cast tv works much better !.Version: 2.1
✓ UselessWorse app I’ve ever had! avoid !! It didn’t work at all. How do I get a refund? No way of contacting. None of the functions work!.Version: 3.5
✓ Not playing. Just won’t load programs any more. Just has the circle as if it is loading. 😖Why is the printing on this part of the screen invisible?.Version: 3.2
✓ Not workingI have purchased this for a month to try it out I entered my card details and I still have no access to it....I have emailed asking why it’s not working and I’ve had no reply?? It says I have a week free I have a subscription in iTunes yet the app is still prompting me to upgrade.......Version: 1.1
✓ Don’t getDon’t get this app it dosn’t work even when you pay you still don’t get what is says you do. It always brags to you to buy premium and if you don’t you get adverts every 2 minuites.Version: 4.6
✓ Not workingThis app is not working after the payment..Version: 3.6
✓ Technically it’s not freeJust downloaded the app, it’s has too many ads popping up, technically the only free feature it has that it connects to TV. Other than that, you won’t be able to stream anything over unless you buy the premium, I find it very annoying that it’s being promoted as a free app with in-app purchase. It should have been a paid app from the beginning, but no, you don’t even pay for it once, you pay for a monthly subscription in order to stream on TV. That’s a complete fraud..Version: 3.4
✓ Complete waste of time!Google products are just lacking any intuitiveness and virtually never work. A complete waste of time..Version: 1.7
✓ Not mirroring my phoneNot mirroring my phone.Version: 4.2
✓ Awful scam.I had the app less than 3 minutes. Doesn’t even give you a free trial without having to pay first, which I’ll never do as I do t trust being able to get my money back. Kept trying to insist I pay £20 for lifetime access, then tried to offer me the same for £15, after I clicked off both things the app then started making a clicking sound that would not stop until you closed it DO NOT GET THIS APP WHATSOEVER..Version: 3.8
✓ “Premium” advertising killed everything.Wow I downloaded this app thinking you could actually use it but I constantly get bombarded by their “premium” service advertisements I just uninstalled the app I would rather return the tv and buy another brand if this is how Sony and Google like to do business I have a Samsung as well and you can just screen mirror instantly from your iPhone..Version: 3.6
✓ UnusableI downloaded this and deleted in under 5 minutes... I couldn’t do anything as it kept asking me if I wanted to start paying for an upgrade. In the few minutes I had it open it asked if I wanted to upgrade 4 times..Version: 3.6
✓ Bad casting featuresI’ve used other apps much easier to use where the casting is straight forward, you click the button and you can see everything immediately - not this though. You have to click very specific things and even then it’s very limited. Very poor especially coming directly from Google.Version: 5.2
✓ UnusableAdvert playing video with music pops up telling you to buy premium every five seconds, completely unusable..Version: 3.6
✓ Don’t downloadThis app is terrible. I used it for around 25-30 minutes and after that I have to buy premium to use any other features. All I have to say is do not download this garbage..Version: 3.7
✓ This app gets people confused with google chromecastConfusing.Version: 3.4
✓ Tiny imageWhen casting a video from your camera roll, anything you filmed in portrait displays full screen on the tv, perfect, anything you filmed in landscape displays in a tiny box on the tv, pointless...Version: 4.2
✓ Does not accommodate horizontal viewingWould be great but you have to watch a video with your neck on the side as it only works in portrait mode..Version: 3.4
✓ Zero starsThis is the worst app I’ve ever used I my life..Version: 3.6
✓ Music issues.I paid for Premium so I can play my Apple music through my chromecasts. However there are no music controls available in the app so I can only play 1 song then I have to go to my phone and select the next song once the first song is finished. There are no controls like shuffle or ability to play a whole album. Kind of useless..Version: 2.3
✓ Don’t buy!Won’t connect total waste of money!!!.Version: 3.5
✓ Almost thereMirroring either photos or videos works great but mirroring the actual iPhone screen doesn’t, I just get a blank screen..Version: 4.2
✓ Bad appWho like this app it tell u to buy $50.Version: 3.5
✓ DisappointedNot a good App. It keeps disconnecting from chrome sat while other apps are working fine. Would like a refund please..Version: 3.7
✓ The mirror option is pretty much worthless as it doesn’t work with other appsGoogle cast is great for supported apps but terrible for things like Apple TV which it doesn’t allow you to cast. I even paid the extra 20 as it said it would mirror anything from my device and then it didn’t allow me to watch Apple TV..Version: 3.4
✓ AdI keep getting the add to pay for premium every photo I want to look at. What a pain. No idea how to stop it!!!.Version: 3.6
✓ Barely OKWhile this app allows casting to Chromecast, it almost never can find all of my available devices. Additionally, it will only cast songs that have been uploaded, and not any of the other music that is available in the Apple Music app. Finally, it will not play an album; only single songs. At the end of each song played, you must choose to play another. Wish I hadn’t spent the money for the premium version..Version: 4.6
✓ BadIn the add it looked like you phone was projecting onto the wall but in reality it did nothing like that.Version: 4.6
✓ I want my money backYou guys promised better quality and stream thru browser none of that happened and I want a refund..Version: 3.8
✓ No instructionsInitial experience is poor given there’s no instructions on how to caste certain elements eg website. So this is not an app I can yet recommend..Version: 3.4
✓ UselessDoesn’t work.Version: 3.9
✓ This is confusing that I got an application for chromecast featuresI’m coming unglued I’m just trying to get some help understanding my chromecast being the main Chromecast app said I get premium features for Chromecast but other apps I have say pay 29.$ for full features for the app WHATS going on with googles Chromecast.Version: 3.6
✓ Waste of timeAfter testing one screencast, it wouldn’t allow to do anymore without purchasing.Version: 4.0
✓ BadTerrrible always tries to get you to buy something and nothing works.Version: 3.6
✓ Terrible UXI never write these, but this app was too awful not too... do not download unless you want a pop up ever 3 seconds suggesting you pay for a membership.... awful.Version: 3.6
✓ Don’t buy itThey try to make this app look like it’s a Google product beware it’s not and it’s basically useless it just streams yourScreen same as Google home – it will offer a full version without ads for $30 don’t do it I got sucked in.Version: 3.4
✓ Kind of rubbish!At first it is ok but then you try click on anything else and it says “limitations”. Personally and I know others will agree they don’t want to pay £2.99 a WEEK!!!.Version: 3.2
✓ Can’t use for its intended purposeI try to send a simple 2 minute video to my tv and it keeps getting interrupted by them trying to get me to buy premium literally every 5 seconds. I can’t even screen mirror anything without this app trying to get me to buy its premium version. Don’t even try to use this app to screen mirror, they’re just in it for the money.Version: 3.6
✓ Terrible App 😡I decided to download this app when I first got in the app, it asked me to buy premium, and I just picked the limited edition then I connected it to my Chromecast then I watched YouTube and I keep on pressing the cast button because I was watching YouTube shorts nobody download this app it is so bad😡😡😡.Version: 5.2
✓ Works but holy addsSo it does what it does but I’m uninstalling because the adds are absolutely crazy and 27 dollars for the pro version is a bit far out there imo..Version: 4.2
✓ The worst app everI’ve never written a review before but this app is so poor and the subscription cancellation process is so convoluted and borderline deceptive that I highly recommend that you save your money and look elsewhere, I spent hours trying to cancel this app. I got no response from anyone / there doesn’t seem to be any customer service whatsoever. If you must try this app, use the free trial - do not sign up for the premium no matter how invasive or persistent it is. It doesn’t stream without jumping every few seconds. The developer response will say to email their support: Good luck with that..Version: 3.9
✓ Rip-offOffered 3-day free trial. Took the full payment of my account! It doesn’t work as expected and I can’t contact you when I don’t have a Facebook account..Version: 4.5
✓ Impossible to even trial it!Advert to subscribe pops up every 5 seconds making this impossible to trial. No, I don’t want to give my card details over for a free 3 day trial until I have at least had some experience of the app..Version: 3.6
✓ Don’t botherRubbish. Doesn’t work. Just nags you constantly to upgrade and subscribe. Deleted.Version: 4.6
✓ Need to cancelWant to revert to chrome cast and not this premium version.Version: 3.6
✓ CONSTANT ads for premiumEvery 5 seconds an ad pops up to upgrade to premium, makes it completely unusable 😡😡.Version: 3.6
✓ Still can’t work it outIt won’t cast to my tv still. I can never work this stuff out. It just never likes me 😆😂.Version: 4.2
✓ Not happy with this app!Very slow at loading videos from device and videos do not play in full screen.. Is there a way to refund my money please?.Version: 4.0
✓ PeopleThe person that made this is an idiot because to screen mirror you have to get premium ahhhvjsfngvfdgydfhhfhhhfvn!.Version: 3.5
✓ Is it a scam?After you subscribe, the app constantly requests to upgrade and pay almost double the subscription cost! It functions ok but often freezes while the actual live game on phone continues uninterrupted. Not worth the money..Version: 3.9
✓ TerribleScreen mirroring is awful, no volume , lags, cannot fill the screen , don’t subscribe.Version: 4.8
✓ Total con as it didnt work but charged me £19Really annoying to be charged in advance without first enabling compatibility..Version: 3.7
✓ Video calls do not work.Bought the app so I could cast video calls on to my tv, don’t work. Have contacted them with no joy..Version: 3.1
✓ GarbageVideos work intermittently. Sometimes just audio is cast, while the video remains black. Glitchy..Version: 3.6
✓ Doesn’t workPlease don’t waste your money you will not be able to play on your chromcast to any degree.Version: 3.4
✓ Awful pressure to purchaseI'd love to try using this app. I'd love to buy the premium version and use all it's features. Unfortunetly, i can't use this app without a popup every 5 seconds telling me to buy it. No wonder no one uses this terrible app. Don't download it. They won't even let you use the free features without an ad to buy the app poping up every 5 seconds and playing horrible repetitive music. DO NOT DOWNLOAD, DO NOT BUY!!!.Version: 3.6
✓ UnreliableJust randomly stops working or freezing. Fire stick next, hopefully better than this..Version: 3.5
✓ Horrendous Scam!Doesn’t screen mirror tested on 3 different chrome cast devices, other apps work fine, this one charges you hefty lifetime $50, can’t do anything from its garbage browser, can’t screen mirror, can’t even keep the connection and it is a total fraud hailing from India … will expose this fraud to Apple’s fraud management team. Do you want to waste your money too?.Version: 4.3
✓ IOS updateWas working great up until my phone update the software to iOS 15 now it doesn’t work at all.Version: 4.0
✓ Not impressedClearly states that it’s a 3 day trial to try it out then charges me full amount straight away not impressed I want my money back NOW.Version: 4.6
✓ It does not workIt does not work, continuous searching/loading, whatever it’s doing, and nothing appears. I want to mirror iPhone to Sony tv. I have paid a full subscription. Not good enough get it working or a full refund..Version: 3.4
✓ Waste of my time and moneyFrankly this brings nothing to the table! I should have saved time, money and stress and stuck with google home Very limited in devices it will talk to- and it doesn’t talk to my tv. I signed under pressure of bombarding ads to the life purchase so maybe…. Just maybe in the future I may be able to reap rewards to justify the price paid for zero benefit today. Fingers crossed- though a refund would be better 😂.Version: 4.6
✓ DO NOT DOWNLOADThis app does not work at all. All it actually does is ask you to pay money in order to use premium features. It will keep on asking you to upgrade with annoying pop ups and ads and even after repeatedly closing the intrusive adware it will still show up again! It won’t do anything other than this and also it kept on crashing frequently when I was trying to cast my files. Tried to contact the developers and no response. I am just going to delete the app now please don’t download I’m sure there are better apps out there that do work instead of this useless program that is more like a cash grab rather than a useful mobile app. So again please beware and DO NOT DOWNLOAD else you will be charged huge amounts of money and they won’t refund you or even reply back to you! Highly dissatisfied user....Version: 3.3
✓ Don’t waste your money or timeApp doesn’t even work. Downloaded it to cast videos from Safari, but the browser feature does nothing. Connected to my tv, pulled up the browser, I can bring up sites, but it doesn’t cast to my tv or give me an option to. So I tried the screen mirroring, it would cast the video, but will not play the sound on the tv speakers. The audio continues to come through the phone. Tried the airplay feature to play the audio through the TV, didn’t work either. Also, the video is a tiny box in the middle of the screen, and if I tilt my phone to make the video full screen on my phone, it makes the video vertical on the tv screen. This app is completely useless.Version: 5.0
✓ Thought it was going to be great, but....I thought this app was going to be fantastic, I was really looking forward to using it. But whenever I actually got on the app I started to click on presentation details, and things like that. Such as music videos and photos and every time I did it said limitation needs premium, or something stupid like that. I got so fed up that I decided you know what I’m gonna let google know about this. If you agree with me give this app one star. I’m not paying $25 for some stupid premium thing that’s going to last me like maybe a month. Everything On this app is so expensive. I don’t like this app. I love Google but this is one of their stupider ideas..Version: 3.8
✓ AdThe advertisement so annoying keep coming every few second.Version: 3.6
✓ Brain dead developersWhy would someone make an app for mirroring things onto a TV, that is solely dependent on the orientation of the device when casting is started. One SMALL issue there, this absolute useless app literally can only be used in portrait (vertical) mode. That’s means that every single thing that is meant to be watched normally just doesn’t work, or appears sideways. Real great job guys, you did good..Version: 2.8
✓ GarbageMy chrome cast won’t let me connect to sign on to my new internet and the Google hone app is absolutely useless for helping with the issue..Version: 3.4
✓ Do not downloadAt least give us a chance to try your app without an annoying pop up every 30 seconds. I couldn’t test any feature. Garbage.Version: 3.6
✓ Do not waste your timeRubbish app, google drive does not work and video streaming for regular photo library does not work.Version: 2.7
✓ Not as good as I thoughtPaid for a lifetime membership only to find out that most of what I wanted to use the app for was not available and that it wouldn’t play files from my google drive correctly. Feel a bit ripped off.Version: 3.1
✓ Not recommendedI didn’t have much luck with this app. Got connected to the chromecast just fine but trying to stream content would broadcast picture but no sound. It would only display in portrait and rotating my phone screen would only rotate the portrait image 90 degrees and staying vertical instead of filling screen as I expected. I wish there was a was to request a refund for the $20 I wasted..Version: 4.6
✓ Mirroring SUCKS!!You MUST upgrade in order to have volume for the video you want to watch!!!! Seriously?! WTF! Don’t waste your money here. It sucks large.Version: 3.4
✓ Waste of timeHorrible app, can’t even cast videos - which it’s supposedly intended for. Every time you attempt to cast anything (video or picture) it constantly reloads the web page. Just Disappointing..Version: 3.7
✓ TrashAd pops up constantly, making it impossible to watch anything. Worst app ever !.Version: 3.4
✓ Not freeSays it’s free but it’s actually like $25 bucks False advertising af.Version: 4.0
✓ Very poor appThere are better ones out there. Only opens in portrait mode. Constant stream of ads made it impossible for reviewing. Zero control over pop ups. All in all, a bad experience. Uninstalled..Version: 3.7
✓ Refund requested!I got this app so i can use it for my iphone, thought it would be a good idea because i have recently purchased a cromecast! It did not work well for me abd was not working at all! I have requested for a refund for tue purchase of the app and yet i have not got a response or my money back!!.Version: 2.7
✓ Waste of time and moneyNo response from emails. This never worked properly. Money thrown out the window…not effective..Version: 3.9
✓ DisappointedReally bad, no sound and when you turn the screen it doesn’t put it as a wide screen.Version: 3.4
✓ Doesn’t work for IPhoneThis is crap I needed to do a free 3 day subscription after charging me monthly. It doesn’t work well with my phone keeps glitching between pictures and doesn’t show videos. I am also trying to delete the subscription before it starts charging me and it’s difficult to do so..Version: 3.6
✓ Take it or leave itIt used to have a good free version with ads which you can put with. It seems to have changed a few things in an update and now it’s just a nuisance.Version: 4.2
✓ Worst app ever!!!Signed up for premium and continued to ask me to sign up for premium but if I press it again it says I’ve already got it. Doesn’t work and the app doesn’t allow you to delete your account either !!!.Version: 3.4
✓ Rubish full og advertsWould not download again wasted 30 minutes fighting with adverts.Version: 3.6
✓ Good concept but bad executionI went ahead and bought the premium version of this and it doesn’t work well at all with my iPhone SE. The media player could use a lot of work as that is why I bought the app. It is like it times out after about 3 minutes and freezes even if my phone stays awake. I would love to give a higher rating if the programming of the app was more professional and actually works like it should..Version: 2.8
✓ HopelessThis app is great in theory if it works, it’s just that it’s staggeringly buggy. Drops out doesn’t connect. Indicates it is casting screen when it is not. I suspect that the architecture of the iphone doesn’t allow it to work fully, but it’s promoted as fully functional. I have the full paid version. The developers have my money so I guess it doesn’t really matter. AVOID. I should add to this review that Apple is complicit in allowing this rubbish in the App Store. I firmly believe any positive reviews are completely fake..Version: 3.4
✓ Keeps saying get premium, even though I bought premium. Stupid appDoesn’t work.Version: 3.4
✓ Cannot get this to work for me for the life of me!I have watched every tutorial video about this and just cannot get this to work properly for me. I am able to get content from my phone mirrored onto my tv but cannot get the screen to rotate so everything just stays sideways. Also, I can never get the sound to come from the tv. I have tried to reach out for help and he no response. Hate this and wish I can get my $20 back..Version: 4.6
✓ Purchased ChromecasterInstalled and when try to mirror to tv doesn’t work not happy.Version: 4.2
✓ Not usable because of AdThis might be the first app I’ve used where the ads literally prevent me from using app to even 5 seconds. No exaggeration, you can barely get through connecting your device and figuring out how to use the app before getting the same ad to upgrade to premium every second. Okay, maybe every 2 seconds. No. Exaggeration. This is just horrible design. If I could use the app without seeing an ad that interrupts use every 2 seconds, maybe I could figure out that I like it enough to upgrade. Whose idea was it to design the app this way? Deleting immediately..Version: 3.6
✓ Crashing ChromecasterIt’s worked beautifully for a while but in the last month it freezes or shuts down on its own for no reason..Version: 4.6
✓ This app is a peace of crap!Don’t download, it is terrible you get bombarded With adds to make you pay!.Version: 3.6
✓ Worthless unintuitive appThis app makes zero sense. As soon as it says it is broadcasting, trying to switch to the app you want to broadcast immediately interrupts. The broadcast that hasn't even started yet with a prompt to resume the broadcast. It says to set to do not disturb if you don't want notifications but doesn't say how to do it or just give you a button to select. The help is a couple of paragraphs that don't relate to anything you actually see it do in the app. Can't believe I actually paid money for this completely useless app which was apparently never tested for usability..Version: 3.6
✓ Absolute rubbishStruggles to actually cast. I have yet to get it to work. Paid for the “premium” and asked my money. I want my money back..Version: 3.6
✓ TAKE DOWN the constant subscription ad with abrupt background musicMy parents have Chromecast and needed my help navigating the stream service on their phone since our dog chew up the remote control. But each time after I hit connect for wifi and TV, it pops up subscription ad with an irritating background music. My parents don’t need the subscription to stream their dog clips and pictures on the TV. Take down this nonsense ad tactic that doesn’t add any value!!!!!!!!!!!!!.Version: 2.3
✓ DO NOT PAY FOR PREMIUM!Waste of money! Service does not work properly. Streaming lags and then cuts out ever 2minutes with “something went wrong message”.Version: 5.2
✓ Must be a less annoying way to castDownloaded today because I needed to find a way to cast from iPhone to a google powered TV. The ads for this app would always pop up when doing online searches on how to cast from iPhone to a DirectTV connected TV. Kudos to their marketing team for overwhelming any online search results for casting google search. If only their developers worked as hard as their marketers. Would not recommend. At all. Annoyingly forcing in app to upgrade and pay an annual lump sum before you could even try to see if it works. I bit the bullet and purchased a year plan just to even see if it would work. Mistake. It DID connect eventually (not the most intuitive app) but freezes every time after about 15 seconds of any vid playing or screen mirroring or if I switch screens/apps/safari to play any videos. What a waste. Would love to cancel that payment, but odds are it’s too late. I’ll keep searching for a better way to connect. should’ve read more reviews before purchasing. I advise everybody to do the same..Version: 5.2
✓ GarbageDoesn’t cast even after being rebooted and reset. Most frustrating thing ever..Version: 3.5
✓ Very Slow,Picture left on tv screen, pay to watch videos we took on phone. Why is it so hard just to mirror what on my iPhone to the tv.Version: 1.7
✓ Didn’t workVery disappointing rented a movie from Apple TV, I’ll never do that again. Sound was too soft despite being turned up full. It was loud enough on iPhone but tiny screen. I busted a gut trying to cast between iPhone and smart TVs, no good. Cancelling subscription..Version: 3.5
✓ I couldn’t make this work.I got everything connected, the logo appeared on the TV, but I couldn’t get anything to stream from Drive or Chrome. On the iPad everything seemed to work and sometimes the tv would flicker like it was about to show something but the content never appeared..Version: 3.6
✓ Pop upAbusive pop up 5 seconde in between each time.Version: 3.6
✓ Constant addsConstant ads.Version: 3.9
✓ Terrible appTo start if u want to connect to anything u need to download several completely seperate apps, like I tried to simply connect to my tv and it said I had to download 3 apps, all to watch a movie on Disney, and when I tried doing it again it said I needed to pay, apps a complete scam and waste of time, easier if you just buy a smart tv, less money, last longer and less the headache, usually i don’t really care if the app is bad or not, I’d just delete it but saying as how much of a headache it is to watch a movie makes the reason I write this. If someone who wants to download the app and is reading to see if it’s worth it, I wouldn’t suggest getting it, u watch one movie and feel great and think it’s a good app, the 2nd is alright, 3rd you realise how cheap it is..Version: 4.8
✓ Doesn’t web castDoesn’t cast as promised. If you try to screen cast, it takes you to a seperate app to purchase. Which similarly doesn’t work easily. Very disappointed. I’ll have to keep searching for another app to cast from iPhone to TV..Version: 3.6
✓ Don’t download it.The app is free but you can’t do anything unless you subscribe 😡😡😡😡😡😡.Version: 3.6
✓ DeceivingTerrible! Clicked on the web browser which directs me to download another app?.Version: 4.2
✓ Waste of money getting a refundThis app is confusing as with most of its products..Version: 2.8
✓ Do not buy this.Ugh… all I wanted was to cast my browser. Should have been simple.. took the app forever to figure itself out and kept disconnecting. When it finally connected, I chose the browser option only to find I have to pay even more money to use that feature. Had I known that ahead of time I would not have gotten this app at all. So if you want to show off photos on your tv, great. But any videos or websites beyond you tube is not gonna happen. I don’t have hours of my life to troubleshoot tech..Version: 4.6
✓ UghWow. Yeah. It’s weird living in a world where everything is free and then one encounters a paywall reminiscent of the worst video games: I guess it makes sense that y’all have been doing so well for so long that you would be unfamiliar on how to make the transition but geez. Rest assured I’ll be looking hard and long for a screencast from other sources for awhile.Version: 4.2
✓ Frustrating!It keeps popping up with a deal to stop the ads. I paid for premium and I’m still being blocked. It’s still telling me to go premium. Annoying.Version: 3.6
✓ It doesn’t turn to full screen on browserOn browser I can only look at the TV screen in vertical view, if I turn my phone to horizontal, the screen did not respond the same way, as the phone turning into a full screen, it still showing a narrow vertical image in the centre of the TV, I’m very disappointed about that, otherwise it should be good..Version: 3.5
✓ Terrible charging after purchase of a Chromecast deviceWhy does Chromecast make it a terrible connection when Streaming to a smart tv connected HDMI on same network?.Version: 4.2
✓ HORRIBLE APPThis app is HORRIBLE, it keeps popping up Upgrade to Premium basically rendering the app completely useless. Once again a sh** product from Google..Version: 3.6
✓ Not impressed - refund my subscriptionI am not Davy at technology types in google home and did not realise that this app was not google home. The app won’t let you in until you pay a subscription and now I can’t make it connect to my google home device at all. Useless, don’t fall for this app. I want my money returned!.Version: 3.2
✓ Worst app I have ever usedDon’t waste your money. Surprised they get away with using google logo colours. This is not a google app. Instructions are written by somebody who can’t speak English. App does nothing! Just use the Google Home app! These crooks are preying on people who stumble upon this when looking for instructions to set up their new Chromecast device. The app is absolutely not necessary and a complete waste of money. DO NOT BUY..Version: 3.4
✓ App purchaseI need my money back please it’s not even working ASAP.Version: 3.4
✓ Doesn’t work, ad pop up won’t go awayTried fussing with this, and it would not work. Every 5 seconds, a splash screen pops up asking me to upgrade and pat $20. I cannot even get the app to work!! It says there’s a free trial, but I cannot get that to work. If you choose to stream a video the app says it wants access to photos. If you choose webstream it points you to another advertisement. Deleted the app after 15 minutes of wasted time trying to get to do ANYthing. It does display ads really well..Version: 3.6
✓ Does not workThis app does not work, have watch the tutorial and it does not do the second step..Version: 3.6
✓ If only it workedTerrible app, makes you pay first before you can even see if it works, which it doesnt. I couldn’t connect my apps to the tv which was kinda the whole point. Very disappointed!.Version: 3.6
✓ TerribleIn app purchase to work.Version: 3.8
✓ Does not workAll I saw was the logo on my tv and that was it I tried casting, mirror, nothing but it’s says connect. Can’t believe you’re trying to make people pay for this app..Version: 3.6
✓ Warning: Bricked my Astound Google TV deviceNot a Google app. You will have to register with an account to do most functions. Be warned, who knows what it’s doing with your data. As I was seeing if it worked or not, it semibricked my astound google TV box, I was able to recover by unplugging the device, but who knows what else it can do..Version: 4.8
✓ Reviews looked goodInstalled. Denied bluetooth access on set up. Three attempts. All it would do is turn on all my Bluetooth devices and stream sound. My tv only displayed TV Cast. Which even after deleting apps, I had to unplug my tv. Great ads for plumbing. Gave them an extra star for that. Im a bit concerned is this just a way to quick grab data to sell. My phone & tv are new..Version: 1.6
✓ What a nightmare!Always push you to premium and not idea how to cast tv. It can’t work properly!.Version: 4.2
✓ Can’t switch tabs when i try to use browser on chrome castI planned on viewing videos on websites and watching them on my tv through google chromecast. However, when the website gets redirected and opens up a new tab, this app won’t allow me to switch tabs at all. I’m completely confused..Version: 3.1
✓ Poor set up skillsThis is by no means easy, it cost money but then it asks me to download more apps and pay more money. Very disappointed in google..Version: 3.6
✓ Fake fake fakeIf I have to freaking download one more apt made by someone who is not the actual real maker of the device that I’m trying to download the app for I’m going to seriously find you take your computer awayAnd leave you with a pile of chopsticks at least then you might learn how to multitask.This app does not allow you to do anything that Google Chromecast should be allowed you to do every time you try to do something you must pay for the premium access to use an app and it’s already free by its supporter Google.But because jerks like you have flooded the market with fake apps it’s going to be a time where your job is going to be picking up garbage from the side streets because my job right now is the pig garbage up from the side of the apps. This is garbage!!!!!!! Apple needs to remove tge ability of garbage like you from even being seen..Version: 3.8
✓ Useless AppTotally pointless app, doesn’t do anything Google Home and streaming apps like Netflix and Stan don’t do already. Got duped into thinking it was a genuine Google product and signed up for lifetime subscription payment plan. Developers won’t refund it and Apple have refused refund twice. 100% waste of time and money..Version: 2.5
✓ Screen mirror qualityThis app was not working very well in general for casting but I was going to give it a pass. When I wanted to screen mirror I realized you need to pay a subscription which I did. Only after paying to use it was I able to see that the mirror quality, specially the latency was terrible.Version: 4.8
✓ ScamEven when paid, it only plays a single song and when not in the background. Also ignores all system controls have to open app each time. Can't even do something as simple as play an album start to finish..Version: 4.1
✓ I want my money back!I signed up for a free three day subscription and wanted to cancel less than 10 minutes after getting the app. The only way I could cancel was via email. I sent a cancellation email three times to cancel with no response. I am bring charged $30 bucks now for this. Horrible..Version: 4.6
✓ Horrible appIt doesn’t work! It won’t do anything on the free version so it asks you to sign up to activate anything that actually works… it still doesn’t work. Don’t waste your time!.Version: 3.7
✓ Garbage AppI downloaded and purchased the lifetime subscription to cast Netflix from phone to TV, it didn’t work. The App is garbage, it shows the TV and connects to it but the screen mirroring doesn’t work to be able to mirror Netflix App. Don’t waste your time downloading this app or paying for it..Version: 3.8
✓ “FREE” trialJust got charged for 1 years worth of subscription instead of the 3 day free trial I selected. Thought “oh well” might as well use it now…screen mirroring doesn’t work. BE CAREFUL - don’t download this app..Version: 4.7
✓ Lots of issues and bugsDoes not connect to tv when streaming and when screen mirroring from phone everything is blurry, alow and lagging. lots of work to be done.Version: 3.4
✓ Worst app… NEED A REFUNDI bought the full $20 thinking it was going to be like how it advertised. But this is one of the worst Chromecast apps out there. Every second of the video is choppy, it doesn’t even play Audio and doesn’t even flip to full screen. I need my money back, you need to fix the app before you advertise saying “4K and no lag” and charge $20.Version: 3.9
✓ Do not get it!!!The app doesn’t work. I have never asked for a year subscription, only 1 month one. They took it!!! Do not get this app!!!.Version: 4.6
✓ It didn’t cast from google DriveUpdate (February 1st) - They answered my email on January 20th asking about a video to understand what is happening. I sent it. No response from the company so far. No refunds either. *** I just did a purchase because I wanted to cast from my google drive. It didn’t work. I would like a refund. I have to rate 1 start because the app didn’t do what it supposed to do. I will change my ratings if the costumer service do what it is supposed to do. That’s really unfortunate I’m really frustrated..Version: 3.6
✓ Terrible App - bewareThis app didn’t work for me. It forced me to pay to test it out. Now I can’t find an option to cancel so I will be stuck paying over $300 a year!!! Do not download!!!.Version: 3.4
✓ MalcolmA total waste of money! Keeps freezing also drops out frequently. Not very happy at all..Version: 3.7
✓ Doesn’t rotate on the tv when you rotate your phoneOnly works in portrait instead of landscape on the tele.Version: 4.2
✓ Off and onConnected showed a photo screen goes black then ident appears then photo again and so It cycles. Not paying for a subscription for that..Version: 3.7
✓ Won't castHave tried all i can think of to mirror from my iphone to two newer TVs but nothing works... including having purchased a new Chromecast even though my devices seem to have it built in. The app screen keeps prompting me to purchase a subscription but no, not until i can see if it works..Version: 5.2
✓ TV Cast Big Rip OffI bought the Premium version of this app & it was completely useless. I could not cast anything from my iPhone except my photos & only some music from Apple Music. The rest of the options were completely useless. I tried to correct the problem through the Troubleshoot tab and all I got was a blank screen. I contacted support and all I got from them was to use another of their useless apps called Chromecast Streamer which also does not work. Don’t download this app and definitely don’t buy the Premium..Version: 3.6
✓ Wast of moneyI bout this Chromecast to play my phone threw my tv I plugged it into my tv and for no reason it needs to be connected to WiFi threw the app and the app can’t connect to it unless it’s already connected to WiFi so literally you can’t use it then after messing with the app for a bit I found out you have to PAY 25$ MONTHLY just to screen mirror witch is the hole point in buying this stupid thing so I wasted 65$ on this stupid little plug because u can’t use it and u need to PAY MONTHLY just to put my phone screen on a tv stupidity at its finest i wish I was able to just plug my phone charger into the tv and then phone but nope..Version: 4.6
✓ Don’t purchaseDon’t bother with this. You can’t stream the audio with the picture, when you rotate your phone, you don’t get a full screen view on your TV, it stays as portrait and just turns sideways. Support haven’t bothered to reply to me about any of this. Don’t waste your time or money. Would give zero stars if I could..Version: 4.4
✓ Begging for moneyLiterally asks to upgrade to premium or shows an ad for every little thing. The premium features it’s offering? Basic functionality. Seriously greedy awful awful design. Deleted the app within 5 minutes of opening it up, do not support this awful awful app..Version: 4.5
✓ Brow Beaten with Premium Ad!I would have given this maybe 3 stars even though it constantly has to be reconnected. However, the ad for the Premium version is so annoying and literally pops up every second, I couldn’t even type a single word in my email to the company without the ad interrupting. Trying to connect to your device in almost impossible because the add pops up so fast you can’t click on your device fast enough before the ad is in you face again. And don’t bother clicking that you want to continue with the free version because they will still beat you over the head with getting the Premium version every second-literally! Maybe Google thinks if they bother you enough you’ll break down and buy the Premium version to shut the ad up. Some of us are older and know that being bullied and brow beaten to buy a product, is just flat out not going to happen. We find a better option. We do not cave to internet manipulation. I’m going to have to find a better streaming option because Google will not take “no” for an answer..Version: 3.6
✓ 😡😡😡It was better the way it was I had loads of bookmarks saved an now I can’t find them an the keyboard doesn’t show a space bar not liking the update at all I wish I never upgraded.Version: 3.4
✓ This is not a Google product.This is not a Google product. It is not free. And it is not even needed in order to cast from your phone or iPad to your TV. If the developer was more transparent about these things, I might be willing to pay them and keep it, but instead they decided to take the opposite approach. Very shady..Version: 4.6
✓ Doesnt workDoesn't work..Version: 2.7
✓ More rubbishNot working... yet another overly complicated item perpetually asking for logins and passwords etc... thirty years of the same computer and software technology and thousands of staff and they still can’t figure out plug n play....Version: 2.1
✓ WowI haven’t experienced an app like this. You can barely project anything from your phone before they ask you to pay. Yes there are a lot of ads but i couldn’t last a few minutes on this app before I had to get off it. You basically have to pay in order to use it..Version: 4.6
✓ It’s A Paid SubscriptionI was going through the prompts to install, right towards the end it auto has 5 Stars prompt for you to approve which I did because it was flowing nicely. THEN right after that prompt “BAM” it’s asks for $$$$. If you don’t pay you don’t cast videos.Version: 4.6
✓ RubbishAbsolute rubbish full of pop ups on browser and upgraded to premium and still full of adverts asking me to upgrade don’t waste your time with this.Version: 2.1
✓ AdsHad the older version of Chromecast app to acreen nitro from my phone. It worked like a charm. Forced to use new app (tried two and still don’t even know which is the right app. The free version is useless- Ads pop up nonstop making the app useless. They are also labeled in a way that is confusing resulting in signing up or opening things you don’t want. Going to throw out my Chrome cast device and go buy abutter Roku device. Less aggravation, easier interface and not being bombarded with ads. I expect more from Google… if you paid for a device you should be able to use it without extra fees and aggravation.Version: 4.2
✓ Lifetime upgradeI did it once already 2 years ago. I got a new phone today and had to transfer all my apps and now I’m being asked to upgrade again to avoid ads and access premium for $10 more than I paid last time!.Version: 3.7
✓ Too Many IssuesThe issues is that it comes up with the app ad, always says to get premium update and is lagging to much I was thinking I could actually put maybe a movie or movie trailer on but it didn’t so wouldn’t really recommend this app..Version: 4.4
✓ Broken don’t useBroken don’t use.Version: 4.0
✓ Nothing available without paying; paid app doesn’t workAnything you try to do in the app forces you to upgrade to the paid version. When you finally do, it fails to mirror screen (the whole point I downloaded this app) and there seems to be no way to get a refund.Version: 4.2
✓ HorriblePlease do not download this app it’s annoying the publicity come out at all the time, do not download guys very bad app.Version: 3.6
✓ UselessIt kept bombarding me with ads to pay for upgrade and no matter what i did the ads wouldn’t go away. Out of desperation I clicked on free trial / pay weekly and restarted. The ads were still there and still wouldn’t go away. So I deleted the subscription and then app. Waste of time..Version: 3.6
✓ Chrome castIt’s awful, just not working for us. Impossible to view anything.Version: 3.3
✓ Tried the “FREE TRIAL”If the free trial is anything like the actual service then this is terrible. As soon as I click any button the ad to upgrade (which I just did) comes up and I am told I have limited access and to renew my subscription. I have done that 5 times in a row... apparently successful... but then I touch the next button and it’s back to “upgrade or you can’t continue” it’s crap..Version: 3.3
✓ Paid for a lifetime subscriptionAfter 2 weeks I can barely get a video playing, very frustrating, emailed for help, slow to reply & not much help.Version: 1.9
✓ Paid for no ads but they’re still showing?Paid for no ads but they’re still showing? Keeps asking me to upgrade but I already have. Doesn’t pick up all my devices..Version: 2.1
✓ Does not cast videosHad a lot of problems trying to cast a video from my phone. Between all the pop ups trying to get you to pay for a subscription. When I finally was able to cast video to TV - only the sound came through - leaving a green screen for where the video should have been..Version: 3.4
✓ Question?Hi! I downloaded Chromecast to play Netflix from my iPhone, through a screen projector. I read reviews that suggested that, and when looking at the app description it seemed Right. And it hasn’t worked. Does the Chromecast app work without another Chromecast device? I was searching for how to videos, which lead me to that question, although projector reviews lead me to believe just the Chromecast app would work. The device has not been able to find my projector - TMY V08 while my phone is connected to my projector. I’d love help and or advice. Thank you!.Version: 3.4
✓ Unable to cancel free subscription !!!!!I have installed this as a 3 day free subscription and as it doesn’t work with Apple TV I have tried to cancel it. It appears to charge me for a full year as my subscription won’t cancel until after a year..Version: 4.6
✓ Blah!It connects to the tv but does not work to watch videos or movies like YouTube and Netflix. 😒😒😒.Version: 3.4
✓ You need to buy everythingI can’t even make photos stop.Version: 4.6
✓ Very Bad App. (Download Not Recommended)So, When I tried connecting to chrome cast, nothing worked. in under 30 seconds I hated it. Everything was going well at the start, until it doesn’t work it disconnected the second I tried, do not download..Version: 4.1
✓ Doesn’t workDon’t purchase the screen mirroring feature. It doesn’t work.Version: 4.1
✓ Negative stars!If it was possible to rate this -100 I would. This app is such trash, it comes up as one of the highest rated apps, yet once downloaded, it’s NONSTOP pop ups to download other apps or upgrade to a paid version. Won’t allow you to do anything. Continuously drops “connection” which doesn’t allow you to cast anything. Just straight up click-bait to boost downloads for the app. The high rating must be from the paid users bc the free version is legitimately useless. Typical BS….Version: 4.6
✓ Doesn’t workCharges my credit card and tells you to download these other apps. None work and getting charged now. Cool.Version: 3.4
✓ Unavailable Setup Subscription?You want me to actually purchase a subscription BEFORE I first connect & setup to watch anything? Not likely… I now just want to see if I can actually connect my Internet video stream to my TV. I suppose that I can continue watching every through my laptop, as it’s a large display - for a laptop - and connects to my premium Audioengine 5+ stereo sound system. Perhaps offering a limited setup installation, where your customers can actually verify multiple platform interoperability BEFORE we commit to any form of a subscription… No, the short term recurring subscription isn’t attractive to me because I can’t even verify functionality BEFORE purchasing.., “But that’s just me….”(from “Joe Dirt” (2001).Version: 5.1
✓ Wouldn’t workWell this was a totally rubbish experience and I now need to go and check tgat this BS app doesn’t steal $7.50 each month from me. Super disappointed. Back to normal old chromecast for me. Avoid this one..Version: 3.6
✓ Terrible and a rip offI seen a lifetime deal for £20 so I decided I’d get it and nothing would work, basic casting or the mirroring, I sent an email to the support team and I haven’t heard anything back it’s terrible service and a terrible app if I could rate it any lower I would.Version: 3.6
✓ MistakeAccidentally paid for premium on Tv cast when I meant to pay on screen mirroring. First of all the apps are literally the same so Idk why premium wouldn’t be allowed on both once you pay for it, second it won’t even let me cast the video I wanted to watch on to the tv. I hope I get my money back, because it was an accident paying for tv cast premium in the first place.Version: 3.2
✓ Misleading!You said 3 day free trial and then you would charge my card! Why would you charge my card straight away after downloading the app???! I need a refund! Your app doesn’t even work! Very frustrating.Version: 4.7
✓ ServiceSo I paid the $40 something dollars for the year, still get ads, still don’t get full service as it constantly tells me to upgrade but when I go via that route it says I have already purchased it..Version: 4.0
✓ Do not buyThe casting functionality is slow and stopped working completely after a few minutes!.Version: 3.6
