Amazon Photos is a freemium cloud-based storage service offered by Amazon. The free version of Amazon Photos provides 5GB of free storage space. This app lets you store, organize, and share photos. Amazon Photos is not a Chromecast-compatible app. If you plan to cast Amazon Photos on the TV, you need to mirror the entire Smartphone or PC screen to the TV and view the photos. In this article, I have discussed three ways to cast the Amazon Photos app to the Chromecast-connected TV.
