A:AnswerYes. You can watch three different shows on three different TVs at the same time. As long as there are three different Chromecasts connected to each TV. You would need to play each show with a different cast-enabled app. You can watch and use your computer or tablet at the same time as well. If you will use your computer, just make sure that when you cast a show from a Chrome browser, don't close the browser where the show is cast from. You can minimize the browser and continue using your computer. Keep in mind that each Chromecast requires a high speed Internet connection of at least 20 Mbps.

But, you can use all the cast-enabled apps on your iOS device to cast to your TV over Chromecast.

A:AnswerDefinitely! You can use both Chromecast and cable at the same time, since they run on 2 different display settings of your TV. Chromecast uses the HDMI input on your TV; while cable is connected through the DVI or VGA ports. You can always switch the source of your TV to the HDMI input where Chromecast is plugged in if you opt to use it.
A:AnswerNo. Chromecast works with most TVs, even old, non-smart ones as long as it has an HDMI port. You can take a look at the following link to know the requirements and setup guide for Chromecast: https://support.google.com/chromecast/answer/2998456
A:AnswerYour Phone is NOT the only way to use it. Talk to google Home or Mini or cast from your Laptop or Chromebook. I tell my Google mini's what I want on the TV all the time. I use it with my stereo to play videos of Artists I like from You tube, Like Elvis, Bruce Springsteen, Rolling Stones, Maroon 5, Madonna, etc.
A:AnswerYou "cast" to it from other devices. It does not have any menus or anything built in. You would use this to mirror what is on your computer, or phone or other devices. Its very similar to apple air play if you have used that.
A:AnswerChromecast doesn’t have a web browser built-in. However, you can cast a tab from Chrome browser on your computer to Chromecast. Keep in mind that your computer and Chromecast must be connected to the same Wi-Fi network. Check this link for more details: https://support.google.com/chromecast/answer/3228332
A:AnswerWe recommend ensuring that your setup meets the following requirements to get a strong Wifi connection and the best experience with your Chromecast:
- A high speed broadband connection of at least 20Mbps with a secured wireless network. Note: A WPA2-Enterprise network connection is not supported.
- A compatible mobile device or tablet that supports either a 2.4GHz or 5GHz connection to set up Chromecast.
- Ensure all the devices you use to stream from and Chromecast are on the same Wi-Fi network and bandwidth (2.4GHz or 5GHz) for an easier and more reliable streaming experience.
- Ensure that your Wi-Fi network is not congested. You may remove some of your connected devices to see if your Chromecast will have a stable connection. An upgrade of your bandwidth connection may be required if you verify congestion.
