We're excited to announce the arrival of the Hulu Plus app on Chromecast today.

Our teams in Santa Monica and Beijing have worked closely with Google to develop a seamless Hulu Plus experience that offers an exciting new way to engage with the shows you love most, via Chromecast. The experience rolls out on Android phones and tablets, and iPad today (iPhone coming soon).

Highlights of the Hulu Plus app on Chromecast:

• It's a custom remote control. Just fire up the Hulu Plus app on your mobile device, connect to Chromecast and start watching. A simple tap on your mobile device screen allows you to scroll through and watch all your favorite TV shows.
  
  
• Multi-task. Add a video to your queue, browse for new content, or let your device go into sleep mode while watching your favorites on TV - all without draining the battery on your smartphone or tablet.
  
  
• Cast on your schedule. Pause your video right from the lock screen or notification tray on your Android device or tablet.
  
  
• Make it a family affair. Enjoy commercial-free children's shows with Hulu Kids, right from the comfort of your couch and the ease of your mobile device.

For details on the announcement see the Hulu blog post by Sr. Product Manager Karan Nischol.
