Whatsapp is the world’s largest platform used to communicate with the people around the world. You can send text messages, audios, pictures, documents, and GIFs. Along with that, you can make audio/video calls with your contacts. While making video calls, you may be eager to watch your friends or family members on the bigger screens. With the help of Chromecast, there is a possibility to mirror your Whatsapp Video calls on the bigger screens like TV. We will show you the step by step guide to do the same.
