Do you want to cast screen from your Tecno mobile phone to a Windows computer? if you are running the latest Windows 10, you can easily mirror Tecno phone screen to it wirelessly without any third-party apps. Windows 10 has the built-in support for Miracast, it turns your PC into a wireless display, or Miracast receiver for your smart phones, tablets.
Connect both your phone and computer to the same Wi-Fi network before we cast screen from the mobile to the PC below.
Get Windows 10 ready for you to connect wirelessly
On the Windows 10 computer, search for ‘miracast‘ to quickly open the Projecting to this PC settings screen.
- Select “Available Everywhere” or “Available everywhere on secure networks” from the top pull-down menu.
- Select “First time only” or “Every time a connection is requested” under “Ask to project to this PC.”
- Turn off “Require PIN for pairing” since you have to grant permission to accept the screen mirroring on the computer anyway.
Important Tips
You’ll likely see a message saying “This device might have trouble displaying your content because its hardware wasn’t specifically designed for wireless projection” on your PC. The Connect app or miracast on your Windows 10 computer will still work. I have managed to mirror different Android mobile phones to my Windows 10 PC configured as mentioned above although it said my PC wasn’t specifically designed for wireless projection. If your PC’s hardware and drivers are specifically designed to function for wireless projection, it would likely work better.
Enable wireless display & Cast screen from Tecno phone to PC
Make sure your mobile phone is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as the computer. Open Settings on your Tecno mobile, choose Connected devices > Cast. Tap on the Menu (three dots) at the top right corner, you will find the Enable wireless display option, touch to enable it so your Tecno phone will search for nearby devices and wireless displays.
Your Windows 10 PC should be found and listed. Tap on your computer name to pair and connect. You will receive a connection request alert on the computer, accept the connection request to start using your computer monitor as the wireless display and mirroring your Tecno mobile phone to computer screen.

Third-party Android screen mirror apps
