Hey everyone,
Thanks for checking out my launch.
This app started because I wanted to play a video stored on my iPhone on my Roku. I assumed it would be easy, but after trying a few apps, I couldn't get the experience I wanted.
Instead of continuing to look for another app, I decided to build one.
What started as a simple casting app slowly turned into something more useful. Now I can cast local videos to supported devices, or just generate a QR code and let anyone on the same Wi-Fi watch instantly in their browser, no app to install, no file to download. It even supports multiple people watching at the same time.
I kept it completely free. No ads, no subscriptions, and no account required. I just wanted a tool that solved this problem without getting in the way.
This is my first Product Hunt launch, so I'd really appreciate any feedback, good or bad. If there's something that doesn't work well or a feature you'd love to see, let me know. I'll be here throughout the day and would love to chat.
Thanks for stopping by!
