I am still using Chromecast (1st gen) device to cast pretty much every video I can find on my phone. For the video apps without cast option (like Amazon Instant Video for example), I simply cast entire phone (Android system 'Cast' that mirrors screen ) on my TV. This solves fragmentation issue for me as I can cast pretty much everything: YTube, Netflix, Hulu, HBO Now, Amazon Video, CuriosityStream, etc. Works great for me.
- StavrosK 9y agoThe nice thing about Android TV boxes (which I think Roku doesn't run) is the remote, so you don't have to use the phone. You can also pause/rewind etc from the remote, which, to me, is more convenient than the phone apps. I made the switch and much prefer it over the Chromecast (mostly for Kodi, though).
