2. Connect both the TV and the S7 to the same Wi-Fi network.
3. Open the Google Play Store on your S7 and install the Chromecast app.
4. Follow the installation wizard to complete setup.
5. Access the media you want to share and you should now see a ‘Cast’ icon with the app.
6. Alternatively, open the Chromecast app, select Menu and ‘Cast screen/audio and then select your Chromecast.

You should now see the media playing on your TV. If playback doesn’t begin right away, stop the app on the S7 and restart it. If playback stutters, move your phone closer to the TV or check your Wi-Fi network signal strength.
