iQiYi and Chromecast

Hi everyone, can I ask you two questions?

1. Can you cast content from the iQiYi app on Android to Chromecast?

*edit on 19/2/21: Yes, you can now cast from the iQiyi app to Chromecast.

When I play the content on the app, the casting icon doesn't appear like it does in WeTV or Viki app. When I looked up the benefits of iQiYi VIP subscription, it just says that you can stream to AppleTV, but no mention of Chromecast.

2. Can you watch iQiyi content in a browser on the computer?

*edit on 19/2/21: Yes, you can watch on iq.com

I know that you can watch content for Viki, but I don't think you can for WeTV.

Thank you.

I found this question bc I too was trying to see if I could stream Iqiyi to a Chromecast, since I'm about to buy one, but since I haven't got it yet, that I can't answer yet. will update you when the Chromecast arrives. 

However, I do use iqiyi on my browser a lot, the website is iq.com, and you can log in with the credentials you use to log in on the app, and that website is in English. Just the first 2 letters, iq, and dot com. hope this helps.

Thank you!

Since I posted this, I've found a work-around for casting iQiyi to my TV. I can just play the drama on the iQiyi app on my phone, and then mirror the screen to my TV. My phone doesn't have a built-in capability to mirror, but I can do it with the Google Home app, which I installed when I was setting up the Chromecast.

Thanks for the info on the website!

I just had the same question and found your thread. I will try the mirroring option from Google Home and see if it works. Thanks

iQiyi now has the ability to cast! The cast icon now appears on my app. This capability has been available for a couple of months now.

Ahh yes, I see it now. Thanks. 

I just bought a chromecast based on this...but I also do not see the cast icon. Not even by the ‘me’ button.
