Yeah, because everyone is asking for that. They will force ads into everything they can, because Google is an Ad company.

How well AppleTV works with Android? Can you cast stuff from Android or is it strictly for AirPlay?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

That’s the one problem. Apple pushes AirPlay, and Google pushes casting. Neither company supports each other's protocols by default.

There are a few applications that allow you to airplay from Android. That said, my TV has both AirPlay and casting support built in, so I haven’t looked into the third party apps in a while. And before that, I used to have a vanilla chrome cast behind the TV in addition to my Apple TV.
