TV Cast for Fire TV®

I have been a user of this app & the chromecast version for almost 10 years. That’s scary to see written down 😅 but seriously if I could give them an award I would. (If they wanna pay me for a better review that would be cool too) 🤣 Seriously real easy to use. Just saying spend the few bucks to get the pause / fast forward function. Once you get the hang of it, you can legit watch anything you can imagine from any website, streaming whatever. I watch movies that have just come out in theaters, to shows I physically cannot view in the country on any service. If you have questions I could probably give you answers. But seriously, I’m on disability from 3 spine operations…. I have a lot of time to check into these things so just trust me. Download it! Seriously I will take any payment for my support 🤣💯😅🏆

I’ve been using this app for a few years, it’s the best of its kind that I’ve come across. The reason I gave 4 instead of 5 stars is because sometimes I’ll have trouble connecting and I’ll have to restart my fire stick and phone, and even then it sometimes won’t remedy the problem (this doesn’t happen terribly often). Also, lately when I’ve been pausing my video the screen will go black, then when I unpause it the aspect ratio is completely distorted, which is super annoying because I’ll have to restart the whole video and fast forward back to where I was. Also, if you’re watching something with subtitles and they’re not embedded in the video you won’t be able to use them. But unless you’re pausing a bunch of foreign films this shouldn’t be too much of an issue, it’s definitely worth the download. I’ve been consistently using it for like 3 or 4 years.

I didn’t download this app because I cut the cord or something. I downloaded it to view my movie projects on my fire stick without having to download it to my phone and lose precious phone storage. Except, this app forces you to pay for a lot of basic functions like scrubbing the video. I’ve found that this app will stop at a certain point during playback without fail, forcing you to watch the movie from the beginning which can be time consuming and extremely frustrating. If you want to be able to resume playback you’ll have to pay for the scrubbing function but I suspect as soon as you pay for that, the video won’t suddenly stop more than halfway through your video - making your purchase almost useless. I wouldn’t suggest using this app if you’re going to be watching movies because it will almost always suddenly stop working during the movie and force you to either buy the scrubbing function or start your movie over from the beginning. Unless you want to pay for those things. If you’re just trying to use it for free like me, it’s best to use it for videos 30mins or less.
