Android has native screen mirroring capabilities (when pulling down the status bar, there is a "cast" icon).<\/p>\n
It uses for two technologies:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Miracast (WiFi Display)<\/li>\n
- Google Cast (Chromecast protocols CASTv1 and CASTv2)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Miracast<\/a> is an open standard, Google Cast is proprietary.<\/p>\n
Google Cast requires "gapps" on LineageOS. (proprietary google library)<\/p>\n
\nMiracast<\/h1>\n
- \n
- Android 4.4 (2013) introduced support for Miracast<\/li>\n
- Android 6 (2015) already removed support for Miracast on some Nexus devices<\/li>\n
- Android 9 (2018) (Android Pie) has no more source code for Miracast since Google removed support for it
