📌 This is what you can do to cast YouTube to TV.
Before starting, plug the Chromecast into your TV and connect it and your iPhone to the same Wi-Fi network.

1. Open the YouTube app on your mobile device.
2. Select the video you want to cast and tap the cast icon on your iPhone.
3. Choose your Chromecast device from the list of available devices.
4. The video will begin playing on your TV through your Chromecast device. You can control the playback using your mobile.

📌 A similar procedure can be used for Netflix:

1. Open the Netflix app on your iPhone.
2. Find the video you want to cast and start playing it.
3. Tap the "Cast" icon on the top or bottom right corner of the screen.
4. Select your Chromecast device from the list of available devices.
5. Wait for your iPhone to connect to your Chromecast. Once connected, the video will start playing on your TV. And you can enjoy Netflix content in TV resolution!
6. To stop casting, tap the "Cast" icon again and select "Disconnect."

📌 Now, I’ll show you how to stream local content from your phone to a Chromecast. In this case, apps are required, since iPhones don’t support the Chromecast protocol natively. DoCast is one such app - https://apps.apple.com/app/apple-stor.... It has a simple, stylish interface, and is compatible with TVs that support Chromecast. Its main features are iPhone screen mirroring, photo and video streaming.

You can use it like this:
1. Download DoCast from the App Store https://apps.apple.com/app/apple-stor...
2. Open the app and grant the required permissions. DoCast will ask to use Bluetooth and connect to your home network.
3. Connect Chromecast to the same network and pick it from the device list.
4. You’ll see a pop-up that suggests that you buy a subscription or use a two-week trial version. The devs promise a gift to the buyers of lifetime or 1-year subscription, interesting! For starters, you can close the offer and try the features for free.
5. So, the main menu has options for screen mirroring, photo and video streaming. Let’s try videos. And another permission should be granted. Now, just choose the required video, and it will stream to TV.
6. To stop streaming, press the X.

📌 Replica is an app that can also stream local files to TV from iPhone. It supports Chromecast and has a compact interface. Since Chromecast is not available by default on iPhone, it’s quite useful. Casting quality is satisfactory. If you want to try Replica, do the following:
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/screen-...

1. Get Replica installed on your iPhone.
2. Grant the permissions it asks once you launch it.
3. Turn on your Chromecast. It will show up on the home screen. Select it.
4. Go to the Gallery. You may be asked for permission to access files. Allow it.
5. Now, you can simply open one of your videos or pictures, and it will be mirrored through the Chromecast!

📌 The Screen Mirroring app provides a similar experience to Replica. Some unique additions include IPTV compatibility and streaming from Google drive. Plus, there’s a virtual whiteboard, which is a fun idea. Let’s get to it:
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/screen-...

1. Get Screen Mirroring from the App Store.
2. As usual, grant any permissions it needs.
3. The Cast button can be found in the top left. Tap it.
4. Find your Chromecast in the list and select it.
5. Go back to the home screen and tap “Media”. File permissions will be required.
6. Start casting by selecting one of your pictures or movies. Then, just keep browsing!
