PlayBridge casts web and local video to your TV. It provides no content; choose the video you want to play.

Getting started

  1. Install a PlayBridge receiver on your TV or desktop and open it.
  2. Connect your phone and receiver to the same Wi-Fi network.
  3. Open PlayBridge on your phone, choose the receiver in the device picker, and pair using the code shown on the receiver.
  4. Open a video page in the phone's browser. Play the video, tap the detected-media button, and cast it to the receiver.

Troubleshooting

  • iPhone can't find the receiver: allow Local Network access for PlayBridge in iPhone Settings. Reopen the device picker after changing the permission.
  • The receiver isn't listed: check that both devices are on the same network and that your Wi-Fi allows devices to communicate. Guest networks may isolate devices.
  • Desktop won't connect: allow PlayBridge through the desktop firewall for your local network, then try pairing again.
