How to Turn Your TV Into a Smart TV Option 3: Install a Portable Media Player
Portable media players are thumb-sized sticks that look much like USB pen drives. Google’s Chromecast is one option. To use it, you’ll want to plug the cable on the Chromecast directly into one of the HDMI ports on the back of your TV. Now attach the USB power cable, plugging one end into the Chromecast unit and the other into a USB port on your TV. Turn your TV on, select the appropriate HDMI number and wait for the Chromecast setup screen to appear. You’ll then be prompted to download the Google app on your smartphone. Once downloaded, open the app, tap on the Devices icon, wait for Chromecast to detect your phone (be mindful that for an iPhone, you will need to first tap “Use without Bluetooth” and then tap “Skip Setup” before getting to the homepage of the Google Home app). You’ll then be prompted with setup instructions to follow in order to begin using your TV like a smart TV.
