RemotypeBY CUSTAVIA

Put your computer on the big screen

Send your Mac or PC screen to a Chromecast or Google TV, and keep your phone as the remote while it plays.

  • Needs Remotype Host
  • Mac · Windows
  • Premium

Showing your computer on the TV usually means hunting for a cable or digging through settings. With Remotype you start it from your phone — and your phone stays the keyboard and trackpad the whole time.

What you can do

Chromecast and Google TV

Pick a TV on your network and your computer appears on it.

Sound too (Mac)

From a Mac, the sound plays on the TV with the picture.

Your phone stays the remote

Type, point and present from your phone while everyone watches the TV.

How to start

  1. Install Remotype Host on your Mac or Windows computer.
  2. Connect your phone and choose Cast.
  3. Pick your TV and carry on using your phone as usual.

Worth knowing

  • Needs Remotype Host on a Mac or Windows computer. Works best from a Mac. Not available on Linux.
  • Great for photos, slides and videos — not made for fast-paced games.

Good for

  • Holiday photos on the big screen, flicked through from the sofa.
  • A meeting room with a TV and no cable anyone can find.
  • Watching something on the laptop, on the TV, while the laptop stays on the desk.
