>>> Important Notes
* To enable video casting please open the App Store on your Sony TV, search for 'TV Cast' and install the companion app.
* If your Sony TV is powered by Google Cast or Chromecast built-in, please download our dedicated App 'Video & TV Cast | Google Cast' to enable casting.
* Please enter the ip-address of your iPhone/iPad by using the number pad and up/down/left/right keys on your Sony Remote. Just enter the numbers, no need to press the enter key.
* iTunes movies, Flash video and DRM protected videos like Amazon Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Vudu, DirecTV, Xfinity, HBO now are not supported!
* Please test your favorite videos with the free edition before upgrading!
* Please use the Remote Playbar for video control while browsing (see more info below)
* 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.

TV Cast for Sony Smart TV Positive Reviews
Alright but..This app is very useful for when I want to watch stuff online and put it on the big screen but sometimes it lags terribly. Like every 5 seconds. I try disconnecting everything but my tablet so the tv can get good signal but sometimes it keeps lagging. I hope they can fix this bug soon. Or maybe a way to be able to change the server or something..G1ssellaaVersion: 3.2
Pretty Good CastingPluses: Hi def source on iPhone is hi def on the tv. Also using a Sony blu ray player works for casting to a non smart & non Sony tv.
Minuses: Because of Sony’s complete lack of support for useful apps on players like the BDP-S6700 the home screen’s Opera TV app very slowly launches the truly horrible “vewd” app which won’t remain on your home screen for next time. This app is found in vewd. Most player apps are placed in vewd and they’re truly crummy apps. The box the player comes in uses pictures of apps as a con job. Thanks a lot Sony, as usual.
This app often hangs up and won’t cast a program, just a prior commercial repeatedly. Eventually you get the show.
And it won’t allow subtitles to pass thru.
When it works it’s great..Olddj57Version: 1.3
I’m too old for thisTried to get my Sony TV to get streaming from PBS, TV instructions said download this. Didn’t know I’d have to pay, but OK. Spent an hour trying to figure it out, then found I’d have to pay for another app to do that. I give up.
I’m sure your English is superb, but how much would it cost you to hire a native English speaker to narrate, for idiots like me who have trouble with a German accent. Sorry..70 yr old former engineerVersion: 3.3
Kinda goodHas issues with loading so then you have to uninstall app a few time but when it does work it does a pretty good job but it doesn’t work on every site.Ari06Version: 1.1
Overall pretty goodI liked this app because it made things a little easier to manage but I ran into some trouble trying to play a video. Does the app only work on certain websites? If so it would have been pretty useful to know before purchasing the premium edition..Why 😭Version: 2.1
Honestly worth evey penny spentIve been using this app for a while and let me say its amazing and for a reasonable price 4.99 doesnt get any better than that. No glitches , delays or ads..Maahes.raVersion: 2.1

TV Cast for Sony Smart TV Negative Reviews
Never buying from Sony again.A pathetic, desperate and embarrassingly obvious money-grab. This app is virtually useless without paying for add-ons for features that could/should easily be free. On the rare occasion that you end up able to broadcast anything from this one, you have to watch ads before your video. Ads. On an app that comes along with a $500 purchase you made on your Sony “Smart” TV. What a joke.
Downloading and attempting to use this app will only frustrate you and ruin your mood for the day. It’s not worth it..Rita SkeetrVersion: 2.1
Sony does it (horribly) againThe worst consumer choice I’ve ever made bar none was buying a Sony (not-so) Smart TV and this flaky app just adds insult to injury. The connection flickers on then off again so that you never get to load the video in time to make the connection and the app home screeen just tries to sell you more of what are probably equally worthless apps. Stay away from Sony products at all costs is the message here..SprachnrollVersion: 2.1
Horrible money grab attemptJust after start, the app showed me some kind of a purchase menu, and immediately complained about external ad blocker I’m using. Really? No TV connection, not a chance to see if your app really worth something? Well, one star is all you get this way...-nev-.Version: 3.4
Connection ErrorMy casting was having connection errors, so I decided to pay for the premium version. Still has connection errors when trying to cast. Don’t waste your time or money on this. Get a new tv if this app is required to cast on your tv..AnteupppVersion: 3.5
Not good in fact it’s terribleNo formatting spent hours trying to get different formats of video and web content no dice. Cannot connect to paid subscriptions through apps to mirror as well.. not that I’ve been able to achieve..GetOutOfMyHouse!Version: 3.2
You can only cast content within their appUseless just like this Sony TV. Samsung would NEVER. I have an app on my phone I want to watch on this “smart” TV. Nothing seems to work. I’m annoyed. The one time I brought a different brand and it’s been buyers remorse since.
Don’t DL this app..MimiIsAnnoyed123Version: 3.2
ConfusingThis is not an easy process. Doesn’t play without glitches. Some videos don’t load. They ask you to upgrade but don’t explain what the upgrade is..MsMochaCaramelVersion: 2.1
Very LimitedWhat a waste of time it was downloading this! You have to pay to stream your own personal videos on your phone. You have to use the built in browser. I mainly just wanted to stream from Disney+, but I can’t do that either..Bean WitchVersion: 2.0
PromisingLooked and seemed like a promising app to cast. Even with the premium purchase every video takes forever to load or buffer on your Sony smart tv. Another donation to another non working app...fix this please..David DoubleyezVersion: 2.0
What are you charging for a service that doesn't workThis app is a waste, since Sony no longer allows this app to work with their tv’s they shouldn't be charging to get rid of adds if the app doesn't even work!!!.Sk_874Version: 1.6
Awful - can’t get this to work, even paid to upgradeDoes not work! Way too Complicated even after upgrading the version. Wasted $$..LhasatVersion: 3.4
Video cast for SonyThis app. Is not user friendly.. I have been working on this for 2 weeks and it still won’t work. Every time you go to connect to the video the app turns red and won’t work. A waste of time!.Stupid sonyVersion: 2.1
This is crapIts all about the money $$$. You pay decent funds for s smart TV and then need to pay extra to watch your own stuff on it. It only allows last 3 videos free access. Please rethink this link..Oooouch wasted my time!!Version: 2.0

Do not buy Sony!!!Absolute worst experience I have ever had with a smart TV. I have purchased two Insignias that have given me zero problem. I wouldn’t wish the experience I just had with this Sony TV on my worst enemy..LabronjamesssVersion: 2.1
Worst casting app ever.Doesn’t work at all. Can’t cast more than 3 most recent videos from your camera roll! Have to buy a bunch of upgrades and add one for this to work for anything.Natemz1999Version: 2.0
