Apple TV app for Android now supports Google Cast

Apple TV is adding Google Cast support to its native Android app. This update allows subscribers to stream Apple TV shows from their smartphones to their televisions. Apple’s streaming service only just released the dedicated app for the Android operating system in February 2025. Adding in Google Cast support helps fully integrate the app into the experience for people whose gear is part of the Android ecosystem.

The addition should make it easier for viewers to shift between screens, even mid-episode. It’s a very different approach than Netflix, which recently ended Google Cast support for its streaming platform in most use cases.
