Pick up a Chromecast if you don’t already have one.
Very slick.īut let’s start at the beginning. Some content, notably Netflix, actually works great within Chrome because, as you’ll see, it’s Chromecast aware unto itself. That turns out to be completely inaccurate and the Chromecast device turns out to be quite compatible with both Mac OS X systems (with some caveats) and iOS devices like the iPad, iPad Mini and iPhone.Įxcept for that caveat, because it’s an important one: On the Mac, Chromecast only pairs with the Google Chrome Web browser, so if you prefer Safari, Firefox or another Web browser, you’ll need to switch for any content that you’d like to beam to your TV. I’ve heard the same rumors you have, that Chromecast is for Windows PCs and Android devices and if you’re an Apple fan or user, you’re going to be out of luck.
