    Miracast isn't supported on a lot of Android devices. Google naturally removed it in favor of their own Chromecast solution

      Is that just on pixel phones? Im pretty sure thats just pixels. Miracsst is possible via some third party apps.

      My lg tv allows screen casting via the lgtv app for example. Would that work on a pixel?

        It's been a while since I looked into it. Last I did it literally required a kernel module or something else kernel level to work, and some manufacturers re-add it but others don't. I wouldn't be shocked if it's now possible from userland, but ya never know
