Yet two sessions that appear similar can behave very differently. In one, every movement on your phone also appears on the TV. In another, the TV keeps playing after you switch apps or even stop actively using the phone.</p> <p>The difference is often whether you are <strong>mirroring</strong> a screen or <strong>casting</strong> media. These terms are sometimes used loosely by apps and device makers, but they describe two useful mental models: mirroring sends a representation of what is happening on one device, while casting can hand media playback to another device.</p>
