While this feature is functional, Peloton does not work with any hardware producers to ensure compatibility. We have tested and identified some devices that work but performance can be inconsistent and the experience can vary depending on the device to which you are streaming.
Some known compatible devices include:
- Amazon Fire Stick (excluding Amazon Fire TV 3rd Generation)
- Amazon FireTV Stick (2nd Generation)
- Asus Miracast Dongle
- Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter
Connecting
In order to use Miracast on a Bike:
- Tap the time in the top right of your touchscreen.
- Click on the “Cast Screen” option at the bottom of the menu.
- A list of available devices will be displayed. Click on the device you want to Miracast to in order to connect.
- If you are having trouble pairing an Amazon Fire Stick, ensure Miracast is enabled on the Fire Stick settings by selecting Settings > Display & Sounds > Enable Display Mirroring from the Fire TV menu.

Troubleshooting
If you are not able to see any devices please go through these steps:
- Reset your router and try to re-cast your screen. If you are still unable to connect, proceed to step 2.

- Select "Cast Screen".
- Tap on "Advanced Settings".
- Tap the checkbox and wait 30 seconds, then tap the checkbox once again to search for available devices.

- Tap the WiFi icon on the top right of your HD Touchscreen and select "Settings" from the dropdown menu.
- From the new menu, select "Apps."
- Tap the Peloton App from the list of applications.
- "Force Stop" the application, then select "Storage", then "Clear Cache."
