TV Cast Reviews

My 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 TVCast is required to cast on your tv.

A pathetic, desperate and embarrassingly obvious money-grab. TVCast 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 TVCast will only frustrate you and ruin your mood for the day. It’s not worth it.

Useless 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 TVCast.

The 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 TVCast 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.

No 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.

What a piece of trash. I downloaded this to cast at an Airbnb, so you can bet I’m not paying for premium. At the free tier you can’t cast from apps and the built-in player pushes ads every couple of minutes, nags constantly. I can’t believe Sony would get behind this.

Just after start, TVCast 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.

This 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.

Has 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

Tried 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.

I use TVCast when I had a iPhone 10 now I have the 11 and I can’t hear anything…. Good app though

Wish it didn’t have many connection error tho

Pluses: 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. TVCast 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.
TVCast 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.

I like TVCast but it has something to major when I’m playing video and minimize to TVCast it’s close and video stop

Doesn’t mirror anything. App says it’s connected. I also purchased the suggested Mirror Screen plus app for 2.99. If I could go zero I would.

I liked TVCast because it made things a little easier to manage but I ran into some trouble trying to play a video. Does TVCast only work on certain websites? If so it would have been pretty useful to know before purchasing the premium edition.

Seriously thank you for being simple and easy to use! And streaming on my tv without cords or Apple TV. If you’re reading this. Use it. Free and great quality of videos.

Ive been using TVCast 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.

I tried a lot of apps before this one worked perfectly with my iPhone and Sony Bravia! Thanks!

Finally found an app that works on my Sony TV!! Wish I can also play vids from itunes
