>>> Important Notes

* To enable video casting please open the Samsung App Store on your TV, browse to the videos category and install the 'TV Cast' receiver app.

* Please enter the ip-adress of your iPhone/iPad by using the number pad and up/down/left/right keys on your Samsung TV Remote. Just enter the numbers, no need to press the enter key.

* iTunes movies, Flash video and other DRM protected videos like HBO now are not supported!

* Please test your favorite videos with the free edition before upgrading!

* Please use the Samsung Smart TV remote or a remote app of your choice to foward, rewind and pause a running video.

* The app streams only the video part of a website and not the whole website content (No screen or tab mirroring!).

* Sometimes it is necessary to play the video on your iPad or iPhone first before it gets discovered by the app for streaming. It may also be neccessary to start casting multiple times until it works with specific videos.

* If a specific video is not working, please check the FAQ on the app startpage. If that does not help you, please drop us an email before leaving a negative comment on the App Store. We will try to add support for that website as soon as possible.

Functionality with few issues

Some sites make it extremely difficult to use application. When the site and app. connect, works well. Nightshade

Doesn’t actually work. Just endless spinning wheels and an app that crashes every time you try to use it

Pay wall at every turn

Absolutely awful app that will not allow you to unlock seriously a single feature for free without an ad or pay reminder in the way. Don’t waste your time - do anything else either than downloading this app!

Samsung TV Cast is a frustrating waste of time!

First, let me say that I decided to use this app because the Netflix app on the tv just stopped working. Incidently, that app lets you pick something to watch and gets stuck in loading… So, I thought I’d stream Netflix from my iPhone using this app. The only thing I could get to work was the video tutorial of running the streaming app, and only once. Then ads to upgrade the app to have ad-free access. But streaming never worked again. I bought this tv because of the advertised features. Nothing that I want works after a fees years of it working. Also worth mentioning is that the tv does automatic updates, which the owner can not prevent if internet connectivity is desired, and during those updates, apps get removed (for example Amazon Prime Video was removed from my TV with my permission or consent). I am outraged that a TV manufacturer feels entitled to make such changes angainst my will and against my interests. I strongly recommend against buying any Samsung products. Customer service is just an additional waste of time and very frustrating. In case you’re interested, I am a software and electrical engineer so I can assure you that my problems are not from a lack of understanding or following documentation or using Google to find solutions (where you can find many others with similar frustration). TV is a big enough waste of time without the additional frustration caused by Samsung’s business practices wasting time without any entertainment benefit. This is as polite as I can be while warning anyone that cares to stay away. For what it’s worth I have had much better experience with LG TVs (and their OLED models have superior image quality, many more apps which actually work).
