Casting to Chromecast, Fire TV, and Smart TV

Get your Playbook workouts on the big screen with these quick setup steps.

Written by Jordan Blake

Before you cast, make sure both your phone and casting device are on the same Wi-Fi network, and that your casting device has been set up following the manufacturer's instructions.

Steps to cast:

  1. Connect your phone and casting device to the same Wi-Fi network.

  2. Set up your device following the manufacturer's instructions, if you haven't already.

  3. Open the Playbook app, find a video, and tap the Cast icon.

  4. Select your device from the list and enjoy your workout on the big screen!

Note: Samsung Smart TVs are not currently supported for direct casting. As a workaround, open a browser on your Samsung TV and use Cast2Web — or cast to your laptop browser and connect to your Samsung TV via HDMI.

Important: Make sure Local Network access is enabled in your device Settings. Without this permission, Playbook cannot detect nearby casting devices.
