How to Cast Android or iOS Screen on Amazon Fire TV Stick

In our comparison between Android TV vs Amazon Fire TV Stick, we noted that both devices essentially run Android OS under the hood. So we come to expect that casting will also be as seamless as it is on devices like Chromecast, but that is not the case. On Amazon Fire TV Stick, things work a bit differently and you need to manually set up the casting page. And if you are mirroring from iPhone to Fire TV Stick then you will need a separate app. So if you want a detailed guide on how to cast Android or iOS screen on Amazon Fire TV Stick then follow along.

7. Now, your Android screen will be mirrored on the screen. Keep in mind, it's relying on WiFi's Miracast technology and not using Chromecast. As a result, the quality won't be that good and you can't play content with the screen turned off. However, screen orientation, audio, and zoom in/out work pretty well.
