Your phone. Your TV. One bridge.
PlayBridge turns any phone into a remote for any screen. Browse on your phone, watch on your TV.
Two apps, one bridge.
PlayBridge comes in two parts: a player that runs on your TV and a sender that runs on your phone. Install both, keep them on the same Wi-Fi, and your phone drives the big screen — no account, no cables, no cloud.
Install a player on your TV
Put the receiver on the screen you watch on — Android TV, Apple TV, or a Mac / Windows / Linux desktop.
Install the sender on your phone
The Android app is your remote, search bar, and browser, all in one.
Connect on the same Wi-Fi
They discover each other automatically. Approve your phone on the TV once and it stays trusted.
Browse on phone, watch on TV
Pick a video on your phone and tap cast — it plays on the big screen instantly.
Senders and players.
Senders push content. Players receive and play it. They find each other on the local network.
Browse and pick on these — they push content to a player.
The details that make it ambient.
Allow with one tap.
When a phone connects, the player shows an Allow / Reject prompt. Approve once and the device is trusted from then on.

Your phone is the remote.
Full touchpad, D-pad, volume, and scrub. Switch episodes from the couch.
Season binge mode.
Start episode one instantly. The rest of the season pre-queues quietly in the background.
Multi-engine playback.
ExoPlayer, MPV, VLC, AVPlayer — PlayBridge picks the right one for the content.
Debrid & Stremio support.
Real-Debrid, AllDebrid, and Stremio addons — resolved locally, no proxy in between.
Ad-free GeckoView browser.
The TV player's built-in System WebView can't block ads. An optional GeckoView plugin adds Mozilla's engine so uBlock Origin runs natively — clean from the first tap.
