Stream Chromebook Screen Wirelessly

You probably already know how to connect your Chromebook to your TV using an HDMI cable. But that isn’t the only possible option when you want to share your Chromebook screen on your TV and watch movies, TV shows, or videos on a larger screen. You can also connect your Chromebook to your TV wirelessly, and there are a few ways to do this. One of them is to use Chromecast, which allows you to cast content from your Chromebook to your TV. Google Chrome OS has built-in support for Chromecast devices, so you can easily share your Chromebook screen on your TV, & we’ll show you how to do it.

How to share your screen wirelessly

Before you start...

If you have a TV with Chromecast built-in, you don’t need to get a Chromecast device to connect your Chromebook to your TV. If your TV doesn’t have Chromecast built-in, you will need a Chromecast device. Plug your Chromecast device into the HDMI port of your TV, turn on your TV and follow the onscreen instructions. Also, download the Google Home app on a Chromecast-supported device. Open the app and follow the steps to connect your Chromecast to your Wi-Fi network. Your TV/ Chromecast and Chromebook must be connected to the same Wi-Fi network.

Make sure your Chromebook is updated to the latest version of Chrome OS, and your Chromecast is updated to the newest firmware.
