TL;DR
- Samsung TVs are finally getting native Google Cast, ending years of reliance on Smart View.
- The feature is coming to select 2023 and 2024 models via a One UI Tizen update.
- Rollout appears gradual, with users already spotting it on models like the S90D OLED.
For a long time, Samsung TVs ran on their own Tizen-based interface instead of Android TV, which meant one frustrating limitation: no native Google Cast support. If you wanted to cast from an Android phone, you usually had to use Samsung’s Smart View, which worked best with Galaxy devices and felt like a workaround for everyone else.
That’s now changing. Samsung has already confirmed that its 2026 TV lineup will include built-in Google Cast. Now, the company is bringing this feature to some older models, specifically select 2023 and 2024 TVs, through a new One UI Tizen update.
Don’t want to miss the best from Android Authority?
One Reddit user reported that their S90D OLED TV received a recent update with Google Cast baked in, suggesting the feature is quietly rolling out rather than arriving in one big announcement (via SamMobile).
Once the update lands, you can cast videos, music, and photos straight from Android phones, tablets, ChromeOS devices, or even the Chrome browser on your laptop.
The update includes more than just Google Cast. Samsung is also introducing a new home screen and features like “Universal Gestures” to make navigation easier.
The rollout has already started, but availability depends on your model and region. It may take weeks or even months to reach everyone.
