JioTV is a popular streaming service that is available only in India. This app is completely free to use with ads. The service broadcasts all the latest shows aired in the past 7 days. Even though the JioTV app has a built-in video player, it does not have built-in Chromecast support. You need to access the screen mirroring feature to share the content from your smartphone and PC to your Smart TV and Chromecast-compatible TVs. In this guide, we have explained all three methods to cast the JioTV content on bigger screens.
Note – The following guide applies to Smart TVs with built-in Chromecast support.
Prerequisites:
- Connect your Chromecast to a WiFi network. On the other hand, connect the casting device to the same WiFi.
- Ensure that the JioTV app on your smartphone is updated and running on the latest version. While using a PC, keep the web browser updated.
- For error-free casting, update the Chromecast firmware to the latest version.
