Description

CloudCaster enables you to cast supported media files directly from the cloud to your Chromecast.
Perfect if you need to display pictures or play video/audio from the cloud in your living room.


What CloudCaster can do
CloudCaster can cast supported media directly to the Chromecast. For it to work, the media file and its codecs has to be supported by the Chromecast. See supported media here: https://developers.google.com/cast/docs/media
If you experience black screen, screen tears or corrupted audio, your file is most likely not supported.

CloudCaster can not transcode audio or video, since media is cast directly from the cloud provider to your Chromecast. Be sure your internet connection is of high quality to ensure audio and video files doesn't lag. When streaming directly from the cloud to the Chromecast, CloudCaster cannot influence the quality of service - it acts merely as a remote control.


Quick guide
To access accounts and favorites, use the right drawer menu (swipe in from the right).


Direct streaming support
★ Files on your device
★ DLNA (Android 4.0 and up)
★ Dropbox
★ Google Drive
★ OneDrive
★ Bitcasa
★ Box
★ WebDAV*


Streaming via device
★ SMB/CIFS
★ Copy.com

* Some WebDAV servers may not support direct streaming to the Chromecast. WebDAV servers with self-signed SSL certificates will definitely not work, because Chromecast does not allow the connection. However you can then stream via the Android device.


Supported media
See https://developers.google.com/cast/docs/media for a list of supported formats on the Chromecast. If your file is not compatible, you will need to convert it or use a transcoding DLNA server.


Free version
The free edition of CloudCaster contains ads and only allows you to add one cloud account.
If you upgrade to the premium version via in-app purchase, ads will be removed, you can configure unlimited accounts and save favorites. Please restart app after buying premium version.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew

5 ★This is literally the best free casting app! Never have any hiccups with it, except for occasionally when I click a video it plays the one underneath it. Not that big of a deal, but just a little thing. Also love the ability to play off cloud drives!
3 ★You need to add a screen saver mode / sleep screen for chromecasting a long playlist while sleeping. Media player does not play every track in the playlist without stopping prematurely.
5 ★this is the only video player I have found that not only plays to chromecast but it also allows you to rotate the video on tv..this is important to me as I have made lots of videos in portrait mode and other chromecast players assume they are landscape and so it's no fun watching them on tv!
4 ★I'm using it primarily to stream video from Drive. It works far better than the other apps I've tried, but there is an issue if I pause a video for a minute I get errors. Other than that it works great. Highly recommended.
5 ★Uploaded my home videos on to google drive and with cloudcaster I can now watch them on my TV without messing about with DVDs. Very easy to use just link the account where your files are stored and the app does the rest.
5 ★This app is fantastic, especially for all those who were waiting for Allcast to work correctly. From the cloud to your TV via Chromecast doesn't have to stop at Netflix now. Thanks for getting it right!
1 ★30% battery drain on Moto X without actually using the app today. Yesterday was similar. Please fix ASAP
5 ★Nexus 5. I had an issue with GDrive and the dev replied with a fix in less than 2 hours. Great app!
1 ★This app doesn't connect to One drive as advertised. Seems as though others have commented on this... but developer hasn't responded.
5 ★For being free, one of the best casting apps. Most options, zero lag.
2 ★Video from Google drive is way too choppy. Pauses every few seconds. Bummer
5 ★This app now working perfectly! Thank you for fixing the URL filing the sign in page issue! Super! Thank you!
