The flurry of Chromecast capable apps is slowly starting to gain steam; we've already shown you how to stream your local content from Android and iOS devices, but today we've got the teaser that many of us have been waiting for—full screen mirroring.

What makes screen mirroring different from casting is that anything and everything that is on your device's screen will be mirrored on your TV or other Chromecast display, not just movies, music, and photos. This function is being worked on by renowned Android dev Koush, who yesterday teased the new mirroring app he's working on.

Pretty sweet huh? As your can see, there is virtually no lag, especially for a wireless setup. Stay tuned with to Chromecast softModder for a full walkthrough once the app is released, and for more of the latest and greatest hacks and apps for our dongles.

Update:We've got another teaser, this time showing off Spotify mirroring, which I know a lot of you can't wait to get your hands on.
