Screen Casting vs.
Mirroring - Screen Mirroring and Screen Casting are often
used interchangeably, but they are different.
With Screen Mirroring,
everything you see on your smartphone, including streaming
services, apps, videos, web pages, and other content on your TV.
In addition to content, the smartphone's menu bars and status
icons appear on your TV.
Casting involves
showing just the chosen content shows on to your TV screen, no
phone menu bars or status icons. If a smartphone app is
compatible with casting, such as YouTube or Netflix, the Cast
Logo
will appear near the
top of your smartphone screen of the app you want to cast.
As content plays, you
can perform other tasks on your phone at the same time including
finding other content to cast, make a phone call, or turn the
phone off. The casted content will play on the TV until you
change to another app, channel, or setting on the TV.
