Photv is a small application that allows you to cast your photos from your phone to your TV, PC, laptop or any other device with browser without painful settings and dark rituals. How to: • Make sure your TV (or other device) is connected to the same network as your phone. Or connect it to the phone's hotspot. • Open a browser on TV • Start the Photv app • Enter one of the addresses from the “Connect” screen in the address field of the TV browser. • Select a device in the Photv app with the same name that appears on the TV, and click "Share". • ... • Photos on your TV!
