Comments on LocalCast: Cast & Mirror to TV for Android

★★★★☆ superbrighteye · Mar 16, 2026
Works for me, I use it for the dlna home network media playback from pc1 to phone and or do pass through from pc 1 phone to another pc2 or other device Does seem to do unlimited shuffle play too on my external music or video folder that's the reason I prefer this dlna to my other similar apps and I installed this one on all my phones (off course there are other ways but for some reason i aways like the way the audio sounds streaming to or through phone so I use all methods]
★★★★★ bob · Mar 4, 2026
Awesome. Does what I want it to, like the way I can cast and resize subtitles. Wish it would work with all video files, I know that is more to do with Chromecast but still don't understand why. Having said that, I do use an old version of this app cause the adverts have gotten to intrusive
★☆☆☆☆ Glenn West · Mar 5, 2026
The latest update has made the app unusable. It had been having more and more trouble playing files, but now it will not cast ANYTHING.
★☆☆☆☆ Vatsal · Dec 8, 2025
New UI is seriously bad. I would use other words at the risk of sounding vulgar. The previous UI was so perfect, yet it was changed for reasons unknown. None of my videos work anymore on my TV even though I am a Pro user and screen is stuck on converting video 0%. That's the number of stars I would give the new UI, but unfortunately that's not an option. Switching to other apps till the old UI comes back.

LocalCast is a casting app for Android that sends videos, music and photos from your phone, a website, your NAS, a cloud drive or an IPTV playlist to Chromecast, Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV, Samsung, LG and other smart TVs, DLNA devices and 200+ receivers. No ads, no account. Made in Germany since 2013, trusted by more than 50 million downloads.

CAST FROM ANY WEBSITE
The built-in browser detects playable video on any page and shows a cast button. Movies, series, sports streams, news — tap and watch on your TV. Bookmarks and history included.

CAST YOUR OWN FILES
Videos, photos and music from your phone: MP4, MKV, AVI, MOV, WEBM, HEVC, MP3, FLAC and more. When your TV cannot play a format, LocalCast transcodes it on the phone — no converting, no copying.
