If your TV supports Wi-Fi Direct, set up a connection between your phone and TV so that you can view or
play media from your phone.
For information about using Wi-Fi Direct after you've connected, see the user guide that came with your TV.

2. Make sure your phone and Chromecast or smart TV are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
3. Move your phone to within 15 feet of your Chromecast or smart TV.
4. If you're using Chromecast or a TV with Chromecast built-in, check for updates to the Home app.
Phone can't find smart TV
First, check the basics. Then:
1. On the TV, open the app and start a video. Then on your phone, open the app and try casting to the TV
again.
2. Link the app on your phone to the app on the TV:
a. On your phone, open the app, open its settings, and look for options to watch on TV. (For example,
YouTube > > Settings > Watch on TV > Link with TV code.)
b. Follow the app’s onscreen instructions to complete setup.
3. Reboot your Wi-Fi router.
4. Check your TV for firmware and app updates. See the TV manufacturer’s support website for
information.

model.
