If you guys add actual browsing functionality to this app, it would be my #1 go-to application for chromecast!

Did not work with several websites! Good idea, but it needs a lot more work!! Keep on trying! It's a good idea, but it needs a lot of more work.

Don't waste your time

This app is nonsense. You're presented with an interface that tells you to type in a valid URL. You do, and then you press the link that says "update screen with website". You then get an error message telling you to connect to the cast device, but there is no place to make that connection! Where do I tell it to connect to my Chromecast? There is no place to do that. At the bottom left there is an icon that looks like it should serve this function, but pressing it does not do that. It's only used to switch between the cast page and the info page. There is no place to connect to the actual Chromecast device I have in my house. Meanwhile, the EZCast app does this and MUCH more!
Pooor app

Couldn't make any website to open with Chromecast. Total waste of time. Don't even bother to try.
Not use friendly

I copied and pasted a URL from Safari and it loaded properly, but I can't control the web page(scroll, open links). I hope this app goes far in the future
