How to Chromecast Apple TV? Step-By-Step

Discover how to watch Apple TV on Chromebook in several steps.

Excellent shows and movies are available on Apple TV+, and most Apple purchases include a free Apple TV subscription. The compatibility of Google Home, a Chromecast, and Apple TV is a common user concern.

Can You Watch Apple TV on Chromecast?

Although Apple TV is compatible with Chromecast, using these two streaming services and devices together is a bit tricky. The Apple TV app can only cast content via AirPlay, not Chromecast, while Chromecast and Chromecast Ultra devices are made to receive video casts from a phone or computer.

Use the Chrome browser to cast from rather than the Apple TV app if you want to watch Apple TV on a Chromecast. The Apple TV web player can be cast to Chromecast devices using the built-in functionality of the Chrome browser.

How to Chromecast Apple TV Using Edge Browser?

You can cast content directly from Microsoft Edge to Google smart devices like Chromecast because Edge is constructed on top of Chromium, just like Google Chrome.

If you are tired of using Safari, Microsoft Edge is a welcome change since it is also available for macOS, iOS, and iPad OS. In the past, I wouldn’t have advised it, but Microsoft did an excellent job creating the new edge, and it supports all of the extensions you use with Google Chrome as well.

To cast Apple TV to your Chromecast using Edge, do the following:

• Activate Chromecast as the input source on your TV before turning it on.
• Open Edge, visit TV.Apple.com, and log in using your Apple TV login information.
• Open the program you want to Chromecast by hovering over it.
• When the video starts playing, right-click > “Cast media to device”.
• Make sure you choose the “Cast tab” under sources and click on your selected Chromecast device.

That is how you can Chromecast Apple TV+ shows using Edge on Windows or macOS computers.

Conclusion: Watch Apple TV on Chromecast

When using the app on an iPhone or iPad, there is no option to cast Apple TV to a Chromecast. Keep in mind that Chromecast, which employs the Google cast protocol, is not supported by the Apple app.

There are a few options available right now. To start, there is no need to actually cast the app when using the newer Chromecast with Google TV because Apple TV can be downloaded directly onto the device through the Google Play store.

The only real option for users of older Chromecast models is to access the Apple TV website using a web browser like Chrome and then connect a Chromecast device using the browser’s built-in cast feature.
