With the emergence of Smart TVs, many internet services have their own application to be enjoyed in a much more accessible way directly by televisions. But what happens if the TV is not Smart TV, and we want to access these services? Well, until recently there was no remedy, but now there is Chromecast, an invention of Google.
What is Chromecast?
It is a device of small dimensions, light and easily installable on televisions that allows access to a series of applications, apps or tools of a Smart TV, on TVs that do not have this technology.
All you need is an HDMI port to connect Chromecast. The first steps after connecting it is to synchronize it with your Smartphone or tablet with Android or iOS operating system, through the Google Home application, available on the Play Store and on the App Store, respectively. After synchronization, you can make the TV play the content you indicate from your smartphone.
How does it work?
Although it is generally said that Chromecast transforms your TV on a smartphone screen, the truth is that it works more like an interpreter. While other systems directly export the image from your smartphone to the TV, causing the content to be played on both screens at the same time, with Chromecast it is the one that plays what you indicate from the smartphone, but without it performing this task , keeping yourself free for other tasks.
If you want to watch a video on YouTube, just indicate it on your smartphone, and the Chromecast device connected to the TVs HDMI port will itself access the YouTube application, and will search for that video, while you continue to use your smartphone with complete freedom.
Chromecast Features
Use your smartphone as a state-of-the-art command to send videos, music and your favorite TV games. You have a wide variety of applications compatible with this device, and you can quickly access all of them, as well as their contents, to enjoy, for example, TV programs just by sending an order from your smartphone. Add content to the play queue from anywhere in your home, and all while continuing to use your smartphone for other tasks. In addition, using Chromecast means less battery consumption.
Choose from thousands of national and international channels, movies, series and millions of songs in applications like Spotify or YouTube. With streaming platforms like Netflix or HBO, you can watch hundreds of series, as well as the best new releases, with additional subscriptions.
Thanks to its compatibility with Wi-Fi networks, you can enjoy streaming high definition content directly from the cloud, as it is capable of playing 1080p Videos with Surround Sound, which you will see stably and smoothly, thanks to its intelligent traffic management, which minimizes buffering.
With Chromecast, you choose how and when you see your favorite content. Select and plan your content from anywhere, and start viewing it when you get home.
Another feature is to actually turn your TV screen into a mirror for your smartphone or tablet. You can display a photo or video stored on your smartphone and, thanks to Chromecast, it is possible to display them on the big screen, mirroring the image on the device.
Play with your friends by rotating the screen on the game board. In the Play Store or App Store there are thousands of games to spend a fun night with family and friends. Choose from logic games, trivia, riddles and more, and share them from your smartphone to your TV with just a tap of your fingers.
Stream compatible entertainment apps from any device in your family to your TV at the touch of a button or with your voice. Just connect Chromecast to your TVs HDMI port, download the Google Home app and start streaming.
