What You Need
Before you can start streaming, you’ll need a few items:
- A UKTV Play subscription
- An internet connection
- A Chromecast device that is compatible with your TV or monitors
- Appropriate cables to connect the Chromecast to your TV or monitor
- The latest version of the Google Home app installed on your device
- iOS: App Store
- Android: Google Play Store
Setting Up Chromecast with UKTV Play
To get started, open the Google Home app on your device. Select “Get Started” if it’s your first time using the app. You’ll be asked a few questions about settings and Wi-Fi networks; answer them according to your preferences. When prompted, select “Set up new devices in your home.” Visit the website uktvplay.co.uk/activate. The app will ask if you have a confirmed code, which only appears when setting up a new device. Your Chromecast should already have an activated code; select yes and follow the instructions in the app. Alternatively, select “No” and use Bluetooth to finish setting up.
Next, complete any additional steps that may appear in the app before exiting it completely. Now, it’s time to download the UKTV Play app onto your mobile device (iOS or Android). To sign into the UKTV Play account, enter your username and password associated with it. Finally, open Google Home again and re-enter any necessary details one last time for a successful setup between Chromecast & UKTV Play.

Stream Content On Your TV Using Chromecast And UKTV Play
After completing the setup steps above, begin streaming by opening up the UKTV Play application on your mobile device; click ‘Cast Icon’ located at the top right corner of the screen. Lastly, choose from the list of compatible displays where playback should take place – this should include both TVs/monitors that are connected directly via HDMI cable as well as those connected wirelessly via a compatible Wi-Fi network like Chromecast (if available).
From here, simply select whatever show or movie you’d like to watch and press play! Content should begin playing immediately via selected display while remaining active controls appear directly within the app itself (including pause/play etc.), allowing full control over the playback experience even while away from the home entertainment system at all times!
