To connect your phone to your Philips smart TV, you can use the Google Home app. This app allows you to easily cast your phone’s screen or audio to your TV. Follow these steps to set it up:
1. First, make sure you have the Google Home app installed on your Android phone. You can download it from the Google Play Store if you don’t have it already.
2. Open the Google Home app on your phone. If this is your first time using it, you will need to set it up by following the on-screen instructions. Make sure your phone is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your Philips TV.
3. Once you’re in the app, tap on the “Cast Screen / Audio” button. This will allow you to mirror your phone’s screen or play audio on your TV.
4. A list of available devices will appear. Look for the name of your Philips TV and tap on it to start the mirroring process. If you don’t see your TV listed, make sure it is turned on and connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your phone.
5. After selecting your TV, your phone’s screen will be mirrored on the TV. You can now navigate through your phone’s apps, play videos, or listen to music, and it will be displayed on the TV.
It’s worth noting that not all Philips smart TVs support screen mirroring through the Google Home app. Make sure your TV model is compatible before attempting to connect. Additionally, the steps may vary slightly depending on the version of the Google Home app you have installed.
Using the Google Home app is a convenient way to connect your phone to your Philips smart TV. It allows you to easily share content and enjoy a larger screen experience.
