Google continues its desktop push by letting Android 16 QPR3 cast external

[phillynews215]

TL;DR

• Android 16 QPR3 Beta 1 now allows users to cast content directly from connected external displays.
• This follows a previous update in the initial Android 16 release that enabled screen recording for external monitors.
• Users can now select their external display within the “Cast your screen” dialog to stream its contents to other devices.

As part of its efforts to bring Android to PCs with ‘Aluminium OS,’ Google has been steadily improving how the operating system handles input peripherals, app windowing, and external displays. This includes both big changes that the majority of users expect from desktop OSes as well as smaller tweaks that only a fraction of users will appreciate. With the release of Android 16 in June, for example, Google updated the screen recorder dialog to allow you to select external displays, enabling you to record activity on them. Now with the latest beta, Google is following up by allowing you to cast screen content from external displays.
