Toshiba sells TVs running four different smart-TV platforms — Fire TV, Android TV, Vidaa OS and Regza. This guide explains how to wirelessly connect your phone to each one, and why LocalCast is the shortcut that works on all four without any extra hardware.
Toshiba Fire TV, Android TV, Vidaa and Regza editions each do casting differently. LocalCast speaks DLNA — the one protocol every Toshiba supports — so one method works across the entire lineup.
Connect your Toshiba TV and your phone to the same Wi-Fi network. Most Toshibas keep DLNA / media sharing on by default.
Tap a video on your phone inside LocalCast — from phone storage, Dropbox, Google Drive or the built-in browser.
Your Toshiba TV appears in the LocalCast device list. Tap it and the video starts on the TV while your phone becomes the remote.
Press Home on the remote. If you see Amazon's Fire TV layout, it's Fire TV Edition. Rows of app tiles with a Google feel → Android TV. A colorful Vidaa splash → Vidaa OS. LocalCast works on all of them via DLNA.
Every Toshiba platform, one app. LocalCast is free forever.
