HOW IT WORKS
Web Video Cast™ is a browser, which allows you to stream videos of movies, TV shows, and other media from the internet to a streaming device or smart tv. Web Video Caster grabs the video URL inside the web page, sends it to the streaming device (i.e. Chromecast or DLNA device), and then plays the video directly from the content provider. This ultimately saves your mobile device’s battery. It also detects subtitles on the web page. Web Video Cast™ does not host these videos. This is not a mirroring app.
GET STARTED
Follow these simple step-by-step instructions to start streaming:
1. Find a video online that you want to watch.
2. Make sure this video can play on mobile browsers without Flash.
3. Connect to your streaming device.
4. Play the video as you normally would. Or, click the play button on the toolbar.

Ratings and Reviews
Very convenient app!!
Overall, the app is excellent but I would suggest modifying the subtitles settings screen, so you can just exit the video without it always casting to your tv screen anyway. (when you press close)
New updates made it from a 3* to a 4 star
The new updates made the app a lot smoother and with a better experience for the user. Some bugs have been fixed, like the one that was crashing the app because it was trying to run ads in the background (it still does but it doesn’t interfere with user experience anymore) or the ads not having the “x” sign, now they do. Small suggestion about the 30-40 and sometime 50 sec ads with having to press “x” sign 3 times, try to minimize them to the standard 5-10 secs cause people just close the app and not watch them, they’re more upsetting than tolerable, just a suggestion.
It is an amazing app even though it’s free it has helpful features but the last two updates were a failure. I understand that you have to implement the ads but ads without an “x” sign, ads that you can hear but you cannot see, ads running in the background while the screen is off or trying too and most of the times fail and causing the app to crash therefore interrupt the streaming to the tv, are bugs you guys need to fix and that’s why I’ll put 3 stars instead of 5 that it deserves
Great Cast App
This is a really hassle free cast app. My only complain is that the built-in browser is not very responsive when scrolling and hangs. Also, the swipe gesture to go to the previous or next page is not implemented.
