Universal Smart TV Cast App: Samsung, LG, Roku & Fire TV

One app, four ways of reaching a TV. Vantix Cast finds the screens on your Wi-Fi and sends them web videos, camera-roll photos and files from your iPhone or iPad, over Google Cast, DLNA, Roku and AirPlay 2, with a Web Receiver for any browser.

15 days free with every feature. No account, no card, no ads.

Which screens, and how

Vantix Cast finds the screens on your network by itself and uses whichever method each one accepts.

Questions

Which smart TVs does a universal cast app need to work with?

Ideally the one you own, without a second app. Vantix Cast speaks the four ways TVs accept video: Google Cast (Chromecast and Google TV), DLNA / UPnP (most Samsung and LG sets), Roku, and AirPlay 2 (Apple TV and AirPlay 2 TVs). For anything else with a browser, including Fire TV, a console or a car, it has a Web Receiver.

Does Vantix Cast work with Samsung and LG TVs?

Yes, on sets that accept DLNA / UPnP, which includes most Samsung and LG smart TVs. Videos and photos go over your home Wi-Fi. Samsung and LG sets with AirPlay 2 can also be reached through Apple's AirPlay menu.

How do I cast to a Fire TV?

Through the Web Receiver. On the Fire TV, open vantix.tv/receiver in the Silk browser and enter the 5-digit TV code shown in Vantix Cast, or the address it shows. Keep the Fire TV and the iPhone on the same Wi-Fi.

Does Vantix Cast mirror my iPhone screen?

No. It sends the video itself, so the TV plays it in full quality while you keep using your phone.

Is there a version for Android?

Vantix Cast is for iPhone and iPad. On Android, Vantix Player, the IPTV player, has Google Cast built in.
