For a while now, the whole Apple ecosystem was strictly tied to the iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV. But it appears that in these, the company is getting more and more open to various other platforms as it is not magically tied to them. A great case here would be that this casting capability in the Apple TV app is now on Android. All in all, this is a brilliant development for the Android ecosystem.

The New Stuff

Apple TV app content may now be cast from an Android phone to a smart TV. Watching movies, web series, and other content in Apple TV+ on their TV is more convenient than ever, as opposed to looking at a phone screen.


This means Chromecast and almost every other smart TV castable feature. So, theoretically, you can cast a show from the Apple TV app with an Android phone without the Apple TV being anywhere near handy.

Big Updates After Another?

Before, Android users never had a chance to view any content while the Apple TV app cast it to the TV.

Thus, for sure, the die-hard fans of Apple TV+ will find joy on this side.

Large screen is the wonder of displaying screens. When it is about any cinema or series, casting out from Apple TV takes the whole experience of viewing to a notch higher.


So where is the user experience now?

My guess is that even proper casting inside the Apple TV app is pretty much intuitive and user-friendly. You just click play on your video, press the casting icon, and then select from TVs or other cast-enabled devices in your vicinity. After that, leave it to connect and the video will start playing automatically.

It had better have a steady network connection with seamless video playback, no lags, and glassy video stream.


Is
it strategy from Apple?

As promoters of this technique have said, this is a very strategic approach adopted by Apple to launch the feature in the Apple TV app for Android. The chances are that it will increase the Apple TV+ subscribers, and perhaps Apple will also lure in some Android users into its content system.

What did users say?


In the end, adding an Android cast service for the Apple TV app has really been a super upgrade and very user-centric. A small perk for the Android fans, who can now cast Apple TV+ contents anywhere and at any time on a colossal screen. But wouldn't it be a surprise if Apple would go ahead and actually muster the unimaginable, that of introducing such other cross-platform app features?
