Cinch for Chromecast app good for
I wanted an app to play my music library directly from my iPod to my chrome cast tv so I could play music through the soundbar. This does exactly that. All your playlists etc. are recognized by the app. My only criticism is that it seems slow to load the next song resulting in some "dead air". Hopefully in future versions more of that work can be done in the background while a song is playing so the next song starts more quickly.
Like the format and color. Makes casting music to Google Cast work but can be glitchy and slow to connect occasionally. Wish it was more customizable.
The only thing that I would like is close the app and continue streaming, and being able to see photos while I listen to music.
Love the app! The only missing piece would be the ability to either group or sort albums by artists somehow. I often dont remember album names, but know the artist, so if I could navigate by artist, but then have a whole album be played once I spot the album Id like to listen to, that would be awesome. Similar to how the iPod app works when listing artists first, but then grouping their songs by albums.
Seems like the most comprehensive iPhone app for casting all your local media. Music, videos and pictures all cast easily and design is very user friendly. Great app thanks!
I wanted only to stream to a chromecast with shuffle option and this gets the job done. allcast app didnt work. There was another free app that worked but had no shuffle. This app a little pricy but it works. The UI is so clean and smooth that it is simply rediculas. I am not sure but I think it also respects the sound settings I set for some songs that are way too loud or quiet, maybe it just up mixes or down mixes by it self, will need to inquire with the developer (my music through the Google music app always loud or quiet). There seem to be some odd bugs here and there some times. Also it tends to pause music if say some other app needs to play a sound (like maps, videos on safari, not text notification sounds) on the phone witch I think is the only major negative. And it does not stream to my Kody over the network, but that is no problem since I needed it only for chromecast audio. Would defenetly get more pupolarity if it could stream to other network devices like Kody.
I now use this mostly to play my music when at work or the google music app for radio sometimes.
I really hope the developer can:
-look into the strange bugs
-add repeat song or playlist option like the regular player has
-perhaps show album art in list
Some bad moments
It takes a while to get going, but overall it works fine. The only music player for chrome cast that has a shuffle option. But alright
Great for casting photos one by one...or videos...but need to be able to select individual photo albums and multiple photos or a full album at once. Might work for music but not worth the money ($5?? Really??) for photos and videos unless waaaayyyy more features are added.
Não funciona com o ios do iphone 4. Muito lento.
Doesnt work with iphone 4 ios. Very slowly.
Perda de dinheiro. Lost my money.
The app takes a long time to cast a song (i.e much longer than the YouTube app). This is unacceptable because its only casting audio. The app should be able to start playing before the whole song is loaded.
No support for app, emails lead nowhere, Facebook messages are read and ignored. To start streaming takes very very long time. Id refund my money if I could, waste of space app.
Does a good job of accessing iPhone music, but very finicky. Hard to get it to start playing (have to fiddle with it) and keeps stopping for no apparent reason. Would not recommend.
