    I did, but that requires either using a smart TV, which isn’t happening, or the Android TV interface which would require a new device and then a clunky interface.

    Casting from my phone is the only acceptable method and all other apps support it.

      Casting from your phone is occasionally convenient but for everyday TV/movie watching it’s way more clunky than Android TV. And you can’t really browse for something to watch together with someone else on a phone.

        I have to disagree.

        Casting from my phone is the easiest method. I can have YouTube playing and jump between the different streaming apps to look for something to play. It’s easy enough to have a conversation with someone to discuss what to play next.
