* If the connection does not work, please try to restart your Android device, Roku and wifi router.

>>> QUICK START GUIDE

1) Wait some seconds until the red icon in the menu bar changes to a filled white icon. If your Roku is not found, please restart the app.

2) Google your favorite video (e.g. on youtube) or enter the video-url directly in the browser address bar by tapping on the pen icon in the menu bar.

3) Wait some seconds until the video link (mp4, m3u8, etc.) is shown below the browser. If "No videolink found to cast" stays, please play the video locally in the browser first and open it in fullscreen mode, then wait some seconds.

4) After the link is detected tap on "Tap here to cast" below the browser and casting will start.

5) Enjoy your web-video, online-movie, livestream or live-tv show and share our app on Youtube, Twitter and Facebook.

Doesn't work for me. When I try to cast to my Roku, the app blinks then asks me if I want to watch another ad. Nope. Edit: What I mean is that the video doesn't load up. Instead, it goes black. When I try again, I get an ad. I'm not against ad revenue. It's just after I sit through an ad, I expect to get my video played. Maybe increase the time intervals in which each ad shows up.

I love this app, I use it every single day. I paid $5 for the upgrade, worth every penny! Update 5/1/24...... Won't work at all now. Every time I bring up the cast it shuts itself off and will not cast. It keeps saying close app or wait. Very frustrating. It has happened for the last two or three days! Crashes since the last update on 4/29/2024

I tried a couple of other similar top-rated apps, and they were very laggy. I've been using this one for a couple of days, and it has worked flawlessly. I've used its internal browser to stream YouTube videos (ad-free, so far), and to stream videos from my 'phone. Very happy with my purchase. Moto G Stylus 2022, Android 11 and a Samsung Smart TV.
