HOW IT WORKS

Web Video Cast™ is a browser, which allows you to stream videos of movies, TV shows, and other media from the internet to a streaming device or smart tv. Web Video Caster grabs the video URL inside the web page, sends it to the streaming device (i.e. Chromecast or DLNA device), and then plays the video directly from the content provider. This ultimately saves your mobile device’s battery. It also detects subtitles on the web page. Web Video Cast™ does not host these videos. This is not a mirroring app.


GET STARTED

Follow these simple step-by-step instructions to start streaming:

1. Find a video online that you want to watch.

2. Make sure this video can play on mobile browsers without Flash.

3. Connect to your streaming device.

4. Play the video as you normally would. Or, click the play button on the toolbar.

PREMIUM FEATURES**

• No in-app advertising
• Most visited sites
• Bookmarks
• Set homepage

**This functionality does not apply universally to all streaming devices. 

LIMITATIONS & DISCLOSURES

As with all apps, there are some limitations we are aware of and want you to know about up front.

• We are in no way associated with any web media providers and we do not have control over the content they provide.
• Web Video Caster does not support nor play Flash or FLV videos.
• The app does not support tab casting, like the Chromecast extension for the PC web browser.
• We cannot do anything to fix issues that arise on the server side (media content provider) such as failure to play or buffering, which is especially common during heavy load times and weekends.

*2026-08-24, version 3.4*

Can’t nothing through this app. I’m coo. Done with this rubbish.

### 1/5 — Scam app

*2026-08-23, version 3.4*

Its literally forcing to pay to target and data track people via payments.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work. The reviews are fake.

*2026-08-22, version 3.4*

Doesn’t work. The reviews are fake.

### 4/5 — Took away the zoom in and out feature and flip the orientation!

*2026-08-16, version 3.4*

You took away the one of the best and exclusive to this app feature! When I would watch older anime’s or movies o could make it wide screen and or stretch it to fit my tv which was awesome but on my IPhone 13 you took it away!

### 5/5 — Best video caster

*2026-08-16, version 3.4*

This is the best video caster I’ve used with FireTV, works flawlessly!!!

### 2/5 — Hate this update

*2026-08-15, version 3.4*

They updated the app or Something  and now when I go to steam any kind of movie or show to my tv it only will play the first 13 seconds of the intro then turn off, I’ve tried searching for different websites to see if that was the issue, did the same thing smh in just trying to have a throw back of movies with my man please fix this so I can use the app properly again…I love this app and I don’t want to shame it but I’d like for it to work once again!!!

### 5/5 — A must have for streaming from phone

*2026-08-14, version 3.4*

This app is amazing. I can go on and on about all the features like built-in ad blocking on their app browser or how it seamlessly connects to my Smart TV and Roku devices. All in all, I just have to say this app is exponentially better than iPhone’s Airplay function. This is one of the rare phone apps that I happily paid for the premium version. Well worth it for the price and the devs deserve the praise. Keep up the great work!

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money

*2026-08-14, version 3.4*

It used to work. Now it doesn’t video doesn’t send to the tv at all.

### 5/5 — One of the best casting apps

*2026-08-14, version 3.4*

I was getting frustrated with how janky and slow the other options for casting were, this app is a lifesaver. Highly recommend

### 2/5 — Used to be 5/5

*2026-08-13, version 3.4*

It’s stopped working completely for me across all websites, it either doesn’t connect or only plays a few seconds.
