You can now mirror your Android screen on Chromecast, if you have a Nexus 5


The prospect of mirroring your Android screen on Chromecast has been teased for a few weeks, but the feature can now be finally tried out -- if you have the right smartphone, that is.
An updated version of the Mirror for Android beta includes early support for mirroring to either a Chrome browser or Chromecast, but only if you have a Nexus 5.
Google's phone is the sole device with the hardware video decoder needed for this mirroring technique.
You also have to get root-level access to the operating system with the current release, although that won't be necessary in the future. Provided you meet the app's exact requirements, you can give mirroring a spin at the source link.
