Quick Answer
With a basic Chromecast, install an IPTV player app on your phone, connect to the same Wi-Fi as your Chromecast, and cast from the app if it supports Google Cast — or mirror your screen if it doesn't. If you have Chromecast with Google TV, install the player app directly on the device instead.
Option 1: Casting From Your Phone
Install a player app on your phone
Install IPTV Smarters Pro (Android or iOS) and add your Apollo Group TV credentials.
Connect to the same Wi-Fi
Your phone and Chromecast need to be on the same network to cast.
Tap the cast icon
If the app supports Google Cast, tap the cast icon during playback and select your Chromecast.
No cast support? Mirror instead
Use your phone's built-in screen mirroring / Smart View feature to send the whole screen to your TV.
Option 2: Chromecast With Google TV
If you have the newer Chromecast with Google TV (the one with a remote), it runs full Android TV — you can install TiviMate or IPTV Smarters Pro directly from the Play Store rather than casting at all. Follow our Google TV setup guide for those exact steps.
Google Cast Support Varies
Check whether your chosen player app supports casting before relying on it.
Screen Mirroring Fallback
Works with any app if casting isn't supported.
Same Network Required
Your phone and Chromecast must share the same Wi-Fi network.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I cast Apollo Group TV directly from an IPTV app?
Support for Google Cast varies by player app — IPTV Smarters Pro supports casting from Android. If your app doesn't support casting, mirroring your phone screen is the reliable fallback.
What's the difference between a basic Chromecast and Chromecast with Google TV?
A basic Chromecast only receives casts from your phone or computer — it has no app store of its own. Chromecast with Google TV runs full Android TV, so you can install TiviMate or IPTV Smarters Pro directly on it instead of casting.
Does casting reduce stream quality?
It shouldn't meaningfully — quality depends on your internet connection and the source stream, the same as watching directly on your phone.
