Comments on Halogen Player: Watch + Cast for Android
★★★★★Renu Kayarkar· Jul 17, 2023
This is the best app I've found for casting videos to my Roku. It also works well on my Chromecast / Google TV, though I don't use that as much. And it's a solid normal video player too.

Needs more settings so you can select from multiple audio tracks and subtitles, otherwise it works decently.
★★☆☆☆Jesse Morgan· Jul 15, 2025
The app worked great for about an hour. I was super happy to find an app that easily casts videos to my tv from my phone without any lag time! But then it started constantly disconnecting from my Roku tv. It got to the point that it wouldn't stay connected for longer than a minute before disconnecting again. I changed the app settings to recommended, but it didn't help.
★☆☆☆☆Richard White· Mar 26, 2025
All I want to do is cast my android's screen to the tv. This app does not do that. HUGE Disappointment. Uninstalled.
★☆☆☆☆Tony Wheatley· Jul 3, 2025
I have been trying for 3 hours to send my phone to my tv, so I can game on a bigger screen. This application is not anything remotely useful.
