Web Video Caster is probably my most used app. It casts just about anything to just about anything. It’s worked better than anything else on my Chromecast and when I’ve needed to connect to Roku.
It supports IPTV, playlist creation, bookmarks, watch history, recent played, resume from last position, and a ton more.
The dev has been great whenever I’ve reported bugs and has added a few requests over the years.
Too Good To Go has been awesome since I heard about it on How I Built This. It’s designed to reduce food waste, but I think that makes it sound less appealing than it is.
Participating eateries estimate how much product they will have to throw out at the end of the day. It’s not bad stuff, but stuff they made too much of. Instead of tossing it, they set it aside, and you come take it for pennies on the dollar. No extra work for them, cheap mystery box of eats for you.
We’ve tried many fancy local bakeries we couldn’t really afford, tried new local pizza places, got some great frozen treats and an ice cream cake from the premium ice cream place, and some great Jamaican takeout from a place near my work that’d normally be out of the way.
We also stock up on bagels from the Manhattan Bagel. They’re normally around a dollar each, but we get 15-18 for $5 and then we freeze them. Been doing that for months now, saving a ton of money. Sometimes we get misshapen ones, it flavors we don’t really like, but we still come out way ahead, or we learn different ways to use things, like the salt bagels we didn’t originally like.
+1 for too good to go. It depends on where you go, but I have had good experiences.
It does vary by day and location, but the surprise is part of the fun. I’m between suburb and rural and there’s a decent number of choices, and new things get added with some regularity. It also makes it fun to use while traveling.
I thought this is also a nice one to recommend here as it actually started as a European app, so it’s nice that it’s not US only, so non-Americans may actually have better luck for a change.
@anon6789 I second this. Bought the premium web video caster years ago to support it cause it’s the best app I’ve used for ad blocking video, casting, local casting etc. It’s fantastic.
Thank you! Forget to mention that you don’t lose ad blocking! This is one of my main tools for navigating the 7 seas, so ad block is critical. It does do many legitimate things as well, so anyone wanting to get video on to a big screen for Abby reason should be served well by this.
I believe free does everything premium does, just with a small banner ad, but it’s cheap and well supported, and this is the first app I paid for because I’ve gotten so much from it and it’s easier than any free solution I had found.
