AirCastLive transports pics and vids from your smartphone to your Vizio TV

Add as a preferred source on Google

Vizio rolled out one more reason today to go with its value-packed line of TVs for your next purchase. Mobile video service platform AirCast Mobile announced the addition of a new way to share content from your mobile device to your Vizio smart TV via its powerful AirCastLive app. The app will be available on Vizio smart TVs for free starting today.

Also available on Roku and select Android streaming devices, AirCast Mobile claims AirCastLive is the only service that allows users to share photos and videos from mobile devices across multiple platforms from “anywhere in the world.” The app, which is supported by Android and iOS mobile devices, allows anyone in its “community” to share videos and photos from a smartphone to another AirCastLive user’s phone, TV or streaming device, without being on the same network.

The app works by first uploading a video or photo from a smartphone to an AirCast account. Once there the content is ready to be shared with anyone else in the AirCast family. Users can even share content to multiple AirCastLive users at once, making it easy to share those vacation videos with the whole clan, even when you’re spread across the globe.

AirCastLive premieres today on over 75 Vizio SmartTV models, including those from Vizio’s highly regarded M- and E-series TVs, which made our list of the best TVs under $1000, as well as Best TVs under $500. The app will also be available on Vizio’s new P-series 4K/UHD TVs.

Vizio users who want to take advantage of the new sharing feature can download the app from the Vizio Internet Apps+ platform now. After adding the app to your smartphone from one of the links above, you should be ready to start “AirCasting” your photos and videos today.

The LG C6 OLED is great out of the box. These settings make it even better.
From Filmmaker Mode to shadow detail and AI Sound Pro, these are the settings that made the biggest difference after a month of testing the LG C6 OLED.
Electronics, Remote Control, Computer Hardware

The LG C6 OLED is one of the best mid-range OLED TVs you can buy right now. After spending the past month testing and using it every day, one thing became clear: straight out of the box, you're leaving picture quality on the table.

The good news is that getting more out of the TV doesn't require professional calibration or hours spent digging through menus. A handful of small adjustments can make movies look more cinematic, improve shadow detail, smooth out motion and even make the built-in speakers sound noticeably better. Here are the exact settings I've been using after living with the LG C6.
