Today I want to inaugurate this new section in AndroidsisCalled the best apps for ChromeCast, in which, in an assiduous way, we are going to present the essential applications that you will not be able to miss in your ChromeCast, applications like the ones that I want to present today that will give us the possibility to see the local videos of our Androids directly on our TV with ChromeCast.
The application can be downloaded directly from the Google Play Store, is named LocalCast, and oddly enough we can find it in a way totally free with integrated advertising in the application.
I want to emphasize the in-app advertising, since it is only in the application itself and it won't disturb us on our television nor in the reproduction of our favorite movies or videos.
What does LocalCast offer us?
LocalCast, possibly it is the best streaming video player what we can get for our CHROMECAST, a player with a sensational graphic style and that offers us full functionality, without limitations, with only the inclusion of the odd ad that will always reach us locally on our mobile screen without disturbing the reproduction of any video or send them to our television.
I myself, who am a user of this Google device, I recommend this sensational application that is undoubtedly one of the best applications for ChromeCast and that can not be missing in any device worth its salt.
How does LocalCast work?
LoscalCast is so simple to use as any file explorer for Android, and is that its interface is like a folder exploration. A clear and clean interface in which once the content to be played has been selected, we will only have to touch the floating ChromeCast icon that is located at the bottom right to connect with the device and start watching our favorite series and movies.
Also with LocalCast we can create playlists or view all the content of a folder without having to touch the controls from our Android to advance to the next video.
So you know, if you want watch all the videos on your Android device, directly to your TV via CHROMECAST, you cannot stop downloading LocalCast as it is possibly the best application we can get for this task
Very good app. In addition to local content, it also gives us the possibility of working together with some other application that manages streaming links online…. For example Qpongo ☺
It doesn't work at all well. Many videos that with the mirroring option look good, with localcast it gives a codec error. In addition, it hangs a lot going from one video to another, it stays showing a video that is not ... an app that is very green and surpassed by the native of Chromecast itself. For me, not recommended.
what video format, I have tried avi and mpeg2 and it is not seen, only heard.
