How to Cast Peloton to TV [5 Methods]

Peloton is an incredibly popular fitness brand with a lot to offer both gym fanatics and newbies, especially of late, with a range of impressive workout routines and classes to follow.

So today, we're diving deep to show you how to cast Peloton to TV from a variety of sources, including your Peloton bike/treadmill, smartphone/tablet, and from the web to make it convenient to get a workout in while enjoying it on the big screen!

1. What Is Peloton?

Peloton is a fitness brand that has a range of smart bikes and treadmills that incorporate useful technology into your fitness journey. They were one of the pioneers of the genre, bringing high-tech exercise equipment to the home.

What sets Peloton apart is the use of metrics and statistics to show you how you're doing. There's also a great selection of courses, workouts, and classes, all led by charismatic and qualified trainers that keep you tuned in to the workout.

Not to mention Peloton implements social features like leaderboards, which make exercising competitive and interactive, even if you're just riding a bike in the comfort of your own home.

Another thing to know about Peloton is the platform support. While you can access all of Peloton's content from their bikes and treadmills, they also have a fully-fledged fitness app accessible on Android, iOS, smart TVs, and on their web platform.

2. How to Cast Peloton to TV from Peloton Bike or Treadmill?

The first method to start Peloton streaming is directly from your Peloton Bike or Treads to your TV. This way, you can watch and follow classes on a bigger screen straight from your workout equipment.

However, this feature is pretty limited in the devices it supports. For example, Peloton bikes and treadmills can't be cast via AirPlay or Chromecast. Rather, it supports Miracast, which allows you to cast to certain smart TVs, Windows PCs, etc.

Additionally, only Peloton Treads and Peloton Bikes manufactured after 2016 support Miracast. A quick way to check your Peloton Bike is if the "Power button" is located behind the touchscreen, it was manufactured after 2016.

Peloton has also outlined a few devices that are capable of connecting via Miracast:

Here are the steps to start casting from your Peloton Bike or Treads to your TV:

Keep in mind that this feature is not available on all smart TVs, and you can only cast Classes to your TV. This does not display metrics, which is a downside of this method.

3. Cast Peloton to TV from your Phone or Tablet

If you don't have a TV that supports casting from your Peloton Bike or Treads, the good news is you have an alternative. Peloton members with a Bike or Treads also get access to their full range of classes through their Peloton App.

Additionally, for Apple/iPhone users, you can also pair your device with an Apple Watch, which has features like GPS tracking, a heart rate monitor, and can record metrics of your workouts. Some TVs don't officially support the Peloton app like on Samsung TV models, but there are workarounds using the Peloton Fitness app on your smartphone or tablet.

Here's how to cast Peloton to TV from your smartphone or tablet:

Step 1. Download and install the Peloton Fitness app (Android/iOS).

Step 2. Create an account. Start with a free plan or subscribe to the Peloton App One or Peloton App+ membership.

Step 3. Start a class.

Step 4. In the bottom-right corner of the screen, select the Cast icon.

Step 5. Select Chromecast, or AirPlay (for iPhone/iPad users).

Step 6. Select a TV/display/device to cast and connect to.

Step 7. Wait for your TV to start mirroring and streaming your workout!

For this method to work, both your Android/iOS device and TV have to be on the same Wi-Fi network.

4. Cast Peloton to TV from Web

Peloton also has a web platform, Peloton Web, which can be accessed from any device with a web browser, including PCs, smart TVs, smartphones, etc. Casting Peloton to TV from their web platform using your PC is a little trickier than the other methods on the list. As per Peloton, their web platform does not officially support casting via Chromecast or Miracast.

However, if you have an Apple iMac desktop or Macbook laptop, the web platform does support AirPlay. Otherwise, there are a few ways to access Peloton content on your TV via the web platform. Firstly, if your TV is a smart TV with a built-in browser, you can try accessing the web platform directly from your TV's browser to stream classes.

Secondly, you can connect an HDMI cable directly from your laptop to your TV and start mirroring your PC's screen. Then, open the Peloton web platform on your PC to start streaming classes.

The last method is by using third-party apps to stream your PC's screen wirelessly to your smart TV like AirDroid Cast!

5. Cast Peloton App to TV/PC (Simple & Fast)

If you have an incompatible smart TV or you're not a fan of using an HDMI cable to connect your laptop to your TV for Peloton classes, then AirDroid Cast is the solution to the problem! AirDroid Cast is a versatile screencasting and mirroring tool that supports a bevy of platforms including iOS, Android, Windows, macOS, and a robust web platform.

7. Can you Watch TV on Peloton?

Instead of streaming your Peloton to your TV, you may want to watch TV on your Peloton instead. There is good news, but it isn't as straightforward to watch TV on your Peloton as it should be.

Peloton is currently working on an Entertainment section that's in beta and officially supports streaming platforms. Currently, you can use Netflix, HBO Max, Disney+, NBA League Pass, and YouTube TV so you'll need access to one of the mentioned platforms. However, Peloton has also stated that streaming apps are subject to change and can be removed sometime in the future.

To access the entertainment content, here's what you have to do:

Step 1. Select 'More Rides' in the bottom-right corner of the taskbar.

Step 2. Select the 'Entertainment' rides section.

Step 3. Select one of the available streaming platforms.

Step 4. Log in to your account and start watching!
