There are two parts you need to know about:

1. The SmartTV, TV platform or internet browser:

So we are going to list each supported device / platform, and take you through each.

Android TVs & Android TV app ( available )

Web Browser ( available * )

Most modern up to date browsers can support NixCast but many SmartTVs browser versions may not work. However if you want to view on a laptop, internet enabled projectors and other devices this is a good fall back option, and its really easy just go to https://nixplay.tv 😀

Samsung ( available )

Samsung TVs in the USA now offer NixCast on over 250 models from 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024. To access NixCast, go to the Apps section on your TV and search for NixCast. If you have a Samsung TV in another country, you might still be able to use NixCast via the TV's built-in internet browser. To check compatibility, open the browser and visit nixplay.tv

LG are in carrying out their final reviews and completing their own internal testing before approving NixCast for release

Once the app installed on your device and launched, or you've visited https://nixplay.tv you should see a QR code on your screen.
