Quick heads up, you can't use a Chromecast and cast directly from the ifollow app to your telly, they have done summat to block it, the gets!!! , however, use chrome browser, and hey presto, it works,  deffo better than watching it on the tablet or phone.

Can you do this from an IPhone or android only?

I paid a Tenner to watch via Smart Telly

Not a smart move by me as all I got was a black screen

Never thought to use Laptop and connect via Hdmi lead which never fails

Any ideas anyone.

Not that this will help many but when I use my Chromebook I turn it into tablet mode and use the app and it connects via HDMI to the big screen, it doesn't work for me via browser but the app is the solid choice.

I have not managed to find any way to cast from my iPhone or iPad to a chrome/google tv.

I can connect my pc but the graphics card isn’t as good as the iPhone picture.

Has anyone got any suggestions.
