Hi I have a iPhone 6s and it’s got IOS 13 update. I have the Netflix app on my phone but I want to watch it on my digital tv ( not a smart tv just normal digital tv) can anyone suggest how I can do this?

We support connecting via hotspot.Turn on your mobile hotspot and connect your Chromecast through a mobile hotspot.
1. Run Google Home app from your phone or tablet.
2. Follow all the prompts until you get to the WiFi setup screen.
3. Select your Hotspot as your WiFi Network, enter the password for your Hotspot network, and then click the 'Set Network' button.

Chromecast should work via a phone hotspot, did it once a few years ago to stream the BT Sport app from my phone to the telly whilst on holiday. I think i just started the Hotspot, connected the Chromecast to it and then when i started the app i was able to stream via Chromecast with no issues. You'll need the phone to be charging though as using the hotspot will burn the battery quite a lot.
 
You can use the lightning to HDMI adapter, I am pretty sure that would work.
 
I used the lightning to hdmi last week to watch Apple TV and YouTube videos. I had a little problems with one show watching it on the CBS app.
