Using Casting: How to cast Google Photos App on Firestick
To use the Google Photos app on Amazon Fire TV stick, you’ll need to sideload it manually. This is a bit of an inconvenience and can be confusing for newer users who may not know how to do this without “help” from another device like their smartphone or computer. But if that sounds too difficult, there are other ways: Casting using your phone’s Wi-Fi connection will automatically transfer photos over so long as they’re saved in the cloud by uploading them at full resolution (16 megapixels).
When you’re ready to watch your favorite TV show, both of your devices must be on the same WiFi network. First, go to Google Play Store and download All Cast App onto your Android device. Next, install the All Cast app onto Firestick as well from Amazon App Store.
Step 1. Then connect each one by going into Settings> Network or Connections > Wifi Setup> “Network Name” – this will be how they find each other when prompted during setup!
Step 2. As soon as the installation is complete, you will launch the All cast app on your smartphone device and select “Firestick”
Step 3. Tap on the pairing menu to connect your Android device with Firestick. Follow the instructions on the screen and tap “pair” once you’re done with a successful connection!
You can now view your photos on a larger screen by using Google Photos. You simply need to open the application and select which photo you want displayed from there, then choose TV as the output device!
Please Note:
Newer models of android devices come with a built-in Casting feature that enables them to project the phone’s display-screen onto other screens without focusing on a third-party app. To find out if your android device is capable of this amazing feature Select settings > connected devices > connection preference (or casting) options which you will find under ‘cast’.
Assuming you have “Cast” enabled on your android devices (smartphone, tablet), there’s no need for downloading extra apps like Allcast or other third-party casting apps; simply select one of these two options below under ‘Firestick’ when connecting through Cast: “Play From Phone” or “Streaming Services”. Remember that both phones must connect to Wi-Fi networks before streaming.
