## What is Video Stream for Chromecast?

Cast any web video, music, and photos from your iPhone or iPad straight to your TV, Apple TV, or Google Home speakers. Video Stream for Chromecast is the browser-based caster that works where the native iOS Cast button stops — now with AirPlay support.

CAST ANY WEB VIDEO TO TV
Stream from any website to Google TV Streamer, Chromecast, Apple TV, or any Google Cast or AirPlay-enabled TV.

STREAM WEB MUSIC TO YOUR SPEAKERS
Send 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.

BLOCK ADS WHILE YOU CAST
Built-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.

FULL REMOTE CONTROL
Skip, pause, scrub, change playback speed, and adjust volume straight from your phone. Full-screen remote works with the media currently on your TV.

PLAY ON YOUR DEVICE
Prefer 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.

MULTI-TAB BROWSING
Jump between your favorite sites with real multi-tab browsing. Bookmarks, history, and per-tab controls stay out of your way while you watch.

SHARE PHOTOS & VIDEOS ON THE BIG SCREEN
Pick 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.

• Google TV Streamer (4K) and Chromecast (all generations)
