Comments on MediaCast - Chromecast Player for Android

★★★★☆ The Ultimate · Jan 14, 2019

It is great but fix subtitle issue. It does not appear.

★★★★★ Usman Junaid · Dec 28, 2019

I love this app because the app does not buffer on Chrome cast

★★★★★ Gigi Pizzuto · Apr 24, 2018

I was looking for a good tv cast for my online tv programs. I needed to replace MTV cast beta which freezes a lot. I used this app for over an hour, and I had no problems. Only drawback, it takes a little long to start the cast.

★★☆☆☆ Benjamin Dobell · May 6, 2018

Doesn't support HEVC (h265) HLS streams on Chromecast Ultra even though Chromecast Ultra has hardware support.

★☆☆☆☆ David Perez · Feb 6, 2019

If you want to just display one image .ok. no slideshow support. Can't select a folder of images. Using folder menu to select an image, it won't display on Chromecast. Just shows blank screen.

★☆☆☆☆ Robert · Sep 15, 2018

The person that made this app made the megacast pro app and abandoned it, you can't even find it on the app store anymore. This is just a slightly tweaked UI version and still has the same problem. Won't play the same files that the megacast pro couldn't. Make software, stops updating, abandons, tweaks the UI and name slightly and resells the app over and over.
