A New Way to Stream Content in the Smart Home Era

Matter Casting is a new technology that lets you cast videos, music, and apps from your phone, tablet, or laptop directly to a Matter-supported device — like a smart TV — using the Matter smart home standard.

It’s like Google Cast (Chromecast) or Apple AirPlay, but universal — designed to work across different brands and different devices, as long as they support Matter.

What Makes Matter Casting Different?

Cross-Brand Compatibility:
Matter Casting is designed to work across different manufacturers, not locked into just one ecosystem (like Chromecast for Google or AirPlay for Apple).

Easier Setup:
Since Matter devices already work together securely with a simple setup process, casting is expected to be quick and reliable without lots of extra apps or logins.

Local and Secure:
Casting happens locally (device-to-device inside your home network), not over the internet, offering faster connections and better privacy.

How Will You Use Matter Casting?

In the future, you’ll be able to:

Open a video app (like YouTube or Netflix) on your phone.

Tap a cast button.

Choose a Matter-supported TV (like a TCL TV that supports Matter Casting).

Enjoy your content on the big screen — without worrying about whether it's a Google, Apple, or Amazon platform!

It makes casting content universal, simpler, and more secure.

Is Matter Casting Available Now?

As of April 2025, Matter Casting is primarily supported on:

Amazon Fire TV devices running Fire OS 7 or higher.

Currently, Matter Casting works with the Prime Video app on iOS and Android devices. Support for additional streaming apps like Plex, Pluto TV, Sling TV, STARZ, and ZDF is expected to roll out later this year .

Quick Recap:

In Short:

Matter Casting is the future of universal, secure, and easy streaming — across any brand that supports Matter — giving you more freedom and fewer limitations when sharing content from your mobile device to your TV or speaker.
