Let's be upfront: LocalCast is an Android and iOS app. There is no Windows installer, no .exe, no Microsoft Store listing. If a site tells you otherwise, it's fake. The good news: every real thing you want to do from a Windows PC to your TV still works via LocalCast on your phone, and this page shows you how.
LocalCast ships on Google Play and the Apple App Store. Nothing else is official. Any "LocalCast.exe" download on a third-party site is not from us and should not be trusted.
On Windows, right-click the folder with your videos → Properties → Sharing → Share. Give it read access. Note the \\PC-NAME\Folder path.
Free on Google Play or the App Store. Tap the SMB / Network Share source and paste the Windows share path. Your videos appear instantly.
Pick your Chromecast, Fire TV, Roku or Smart TV in LocalCast. The stream goes Windows → TV directly, your phone just controls playback — no PC app needed.
No. LocalCast is an Android and iOS app only. There is no official Windows installer, no Microsoft Store listing, no desktop client. Anyone offering a "LocalCast for Windows" download from a third-party site is distributing something we didn't make — do not install it.
It's the only place LocalCast exists — and it's all you need to cast from Windows to any TV.
