User Reviews for TV Cast Chromecast

The more updates the worse

I’m going to cut to the chase, it’s a very convenient app to use. But it seems the farther they go along the more things you need to purchase. You used to be able to pause, play, rewind, and fast forward. Now that is a payed feature. I have bought the premium 4 times but it goes off of your apple ID and not your google account. I’m refusing to make any more in-app purchases until there is a better way to link payments across devices. There should either be a family plan or a linking across emails. Because when you have a family, which ever device has premium is now rendered disabled for any other use. Chrome Casting while using this app can cause lag or packet loss( packet loss is not necessarily lag it’s when the wifi is smooth but for some reason all the data is not getting received. ) So it should be linked through email and have the option to have a family plan just like google home.

Terrible

I used to love this app but now recently I realize more than half of the video's aren't supported and now there's this stupid banner that pops up during a video or movie asking that I upgrade to get rid of the banner. If your app is free awesome but once you start putting annoying things in the app to force to pay for a service that you don't want and as result ruins the experience than that's just business. I may have one day decided I wanted the full premium package but now that's never going to happen because I have no desire to pay for something that's being forced on me if I want to enjoy the app. That's not how you get one someone to pay for full features you don't force down their throats and then that they give in and buy what you want them to get. Everyone behind this app that was okay with this business model of forcing people to become customers should be ashamed of yourselves. If you wanted to make money in the first place you shouldn't have made the app free at all it's completely disgraceful and dishonest.

Started out great when chrome cast was getting big

But now every time I go on to cast a movie on this app, I always get “video-ad detected. Press here to skip” I’ll press it and literally nothing happens. Itll like freeze and i have the ad blocker on. Yet it always asks me to allow or deny pop ups. I’ll deny said pop ups and again nothing will happen. I’ll reload the page and allow said pop ups and again nothing happens. It’s a bit frustrating when a simple process that would normally take me 5 minutes is now taking me 30 minutes or maybe even longer because pop ups need to be allowed or denied and video ads need to be skipped.. what was the point of me buying the entire bundle if it just makes things a bit more complicated.

Constant Adult Ads

I used to rave about this app before this latest update. I remember having to allow an adult ad or 2 play on my device before casting my movie...Now, every time I want to cast, I have to ask my children to leave the room bc for whatever reason, I now have to CAST the adult ads on my TV; and 8 times out of 10, it doesn’t work. Tonight, I watched the same adult website ad 4 times and still wasn’t able to cast bc every time I tried, I would get that same pop-up inviting me to buy premium or watch an ad. I COMPLETELY understand that they have to make money, but I’m not paying for premium as there are too many issues with it not playing when it should and I have already paid for 2 add-on features.

Worked great for about 15 minutes or so... then pop-ups/ads made the stream unwatchable.

This app, although slightly clunky, worked perfectly at first and allowed me to begin streaming a concert from my phone to the TV. Before the stream began, the app displayed an ad, which was understandable... especially since it’s a free app. The ad was trying to sell me ad space within the app, which did seem a little strange. After that, everything worked perfectly (although there was an in-app notice stating that, if I wanted to pause/fast-forward/rewind, there would be an additional charge). My wife and I settled in, ready to watch that evening’s concert. As I mentioned earlier, it worked perfectly at first. However, after about 15 minutes or so, it displayed a HUGE banner at the top of the screen, cutting off about the top third of the stream or so, informing me that it would go away if I paid for the premium version of the app. We waited it out for a few minutes, hoping the banner would disappear, but nope... it just started slowly moving around the screen. It was at that point that I gave up, and just began casting the livestream from a Chrome tab on my PC. This worked perfectly, didn’t cause any issues for the rest of the night, and didn’t interfere with normal usage of the PC (my son was able to play games on it while we used it to stream the concert to the living room TV). Skip this app, and just use Chrome on your desktop PC if at all possible.

Best Video Streaming App Available

I've tried and tested a wide variety of streaming apps over the years and this one is easily the best I've found by far. I used to have to use an HDMI solution to stream my anime/movies to my HDTVs but now I just sync with my Chromecast and I'm set! I use this app almost daily, and the people who are complaining and/or giving it anything less than five stars simply didn't put more than 2-3 minutes' worth of effort to figure out the basics; didn't purchase to ad-free version (it's still very much useable without making any purchase(s)), or are too ignorant with software to do much of anything on their own. I highly recommend this app to anyone who's even remotely interested in video streaming.

Lots of Quirks

As other reviews have said, you have to complete an in-app purchase to be able to pause, rewind and fast forward. Months ago, I didn’t mind making the purchase because the app worked pretty well other than that. Now, it’s kinda slow and takes several attempts of casting the video before it actually sends it to the chromecast. A lot of reloading the page, disconnecting and reconnecting to the chromecast, and even closing the app and opening it again.I think my biggest complaint currently is that it recognizes ads on websites as videos, so it’s common that it casts the ad to my chromecast instead of the video I actually want to watch. In addition, the button that you use to cast the video is the bar that you use pause or scrub the video. Even if you do cast the correct video to your chromecast, if it recognizes the ad as a new video and you can no longer use the functionality of the in-app purchase that you made. To be blunt and concise: it works but not great.

Works great!

Thought it was just "ok" until I realized you could buy an add on to fast forward, pause, rewind for $1.99, now I think it's great! (Without the add on, it still works, but you have to play a video from beginning to end, with no way to control it) The add on makes all the difference in the world & it only cost 2 bucks! I can deal with that! Good job!! :)Also, after reading other reviews, I will ad- Yes, it is a bit of a process to start a video, but it's a very small & easy process. I'm not very tech savvy at all, but even I find this pretty simple. And besides that, what better option do you have to cast videos that don't have a cast button? I don't know of any! I'd say this app works very well, especially for free + a $2 add on!!

I don't normally do this but..

Wow. This just solved so many problems. If you're skimming through reviews skeptically wondering if this is for real, kind of like I was about 10 minutes before I wrote this, you can rest easy.I just tried a few different movie streaming sites and they casted to my TV faster than I was even ready for. In fact, immediately upon opening the app, it overrode my wife's chrome cast netflix show and she got mad at me. Until I casted the new J-Law movie Joy to demonstrate. Then she turned all smiles.This app turns your Chromecast into what you THOUGHT it would be before you bought it and sadly realized your soul belonged to Google. Break free like I did. Watch EVERYTHING. Tell your friends. Then come back here and 5 star the hell out of this app.

Getting worse and worse

I used to love this app. I have chromecast built into my Toshiba tv, and 2 years ago, after trying multiple apps I discovered this one and it worked great for casting. I bought the full version soon after and it worked great as well for about a year and half. Then about 6 months ago it started crashing here and there but not bad. I could deal with it, nothings perfect. With each update, I keep expecting a fix, but instead it gets worse and worse. Now, on iOS 12.1, newest version of this app, and an iPhone XR, it’s barely usable. If I leave the app even for a second and come back, it crashes every time, and even if I leave it in the forefront, it crashes every 5-10 minutes. It never did that before whatsoever. I could cast and forget about it, not anymore. Im going to see if there is a firmware upgrade for my TV, and if there is and it helps I’ll edit this review. Because the app is doing the same on this phone and my old iPhone 7, it leads me to believe its the app, but I suppose I’ll see soon. I’m gonna go look for a new chromecast app now.....
