Mobile screen-sharing utility app
USB Screen Share - Phone to TV is a free utility application for mobile devices from developer Battery Stats Saver. It's a tool that allows users to mirror their device screen to a TV wirelessly or using a USB cable. It boasts a simple user interface and easy operation straight out of the box.
Similar in concept to apps like CastPlay or FastCast, USB Screen Share - Phone to TV utilizes the popular standard Miracast protocol to establish a connection between devices and displays seamlessly. What makes it stand out is that it can achieve a similar result through a USB connection, removing the need for an internet connection.
Two ways to mirror
There are essentially two ways to use the USB Screen Share app. The first is wirelessly connecting to a smart TV or monitor using the Miracast protocol. It supports a wide variety of models from different brands. The other is by using a USB cable to connect your phone or tablet to an external display. Once established, your screen will be mirrored onto the large screen right away.
From there, you can enjoy the benefits of a large screen to open documents or consume media like watching movies and TV shows. You can even use it while playing games or taking video calls. If you're on a USB connection and if it's supported, you can even charge your device while mirroring so you don't run out of power, as well as access your internal storage to manage your files.
Dive into the settings menu and you’ll find that this mirroring app also provides various customization options like changing your screen resolution or aspect ratio to optimize your viewing experience. Now, if you're planning on connecting your device through a USB cable, just make sure it supports display or video output. Otherwise, this particular function will not work for you. Check this first before diving in.
Handy and easy to use

It's easy to set up and lets you pick between wireless or wired connections. It also has customization options. Just make sure your device supports the latter, and you're good to go. Recommended.
