How-To-Use-Netflix-Mobile-Plan-On-Pc-Wireless Scrcpy

In a previous article, I shared with you the method or you can say the trick to watch Netflix ₹199 (now ₹149) mobile plan on Laptop, Desktop, TV using Scrcpy. But that method required you to keep your PC connected with your phone using a USB data cable while watching or while casting your screen. I know that was a little odd in the WiFi decade.

So here I am back with another method, obviously, a wireless one, to watch Netflix ₹199 (now ₹149) mobile plan on Laptop, Desktop, TV using Scrcpy. I know you must be wondering that if the Netflix mobile plan can be cast wirelessly then why did I share a wired method, but wait! let me introduce Netflix to those who have read till here and still wondering what this is all about!

Netflix is a streaming service that allows us to watch a wide variety of award-winning television shows, movies, anime, documentaries, and much more. By paying a monthly subscription fee, we can stream the shows on a wide variety of devices like laptops computers, desktop computers (Windows PC or Mac), mobile phones, etc.

When Netflix launched its services in India. They knew that to compete with Amazon Prime and Disney+ Hotstar, they need to make an affordable plan. So they launched the 199 (now ₹149) Indian Rupee Netflix mobile plan that allows subscribers to watch all Netflix content on either phone or a tablet. But the downside of the mobile plan is that you can’t use it on a TV or a computer.

Now coming back to our topic, how to watch Netflix mobile plan on Laptop, Desktop, TV using Scrcpy wirelessly, you must be familiar with the wired method to get the wireless method working. So, please check out the previous article or this YouTube video.

The steps for the wireless method comes into play only after you have successfully connected your phone with your PC using SCRCPy via USB. So, here I am assuming that the Netflix videos are being cast flawlessly on your computer device.

If your answer is yes, then follow the steps mentioned below:

Things you require to use Netflix mobile plan to watch content on Laptop or Desktop wirelessly:

  • Mobile Phone (Most Realme, Oppo, Vivo, and OnePlus devices won’t work but you can try)
  • Active Netflix mobile plan
