Mirroring My Screen doesn't work

Yuuhi — Wed, 14 Sep 2022 03:23:20 GMT

Hi. I want to mirror my phone screen (Google pixel 6a) to my TV via Chromecast. Casting through apps like Google Photos and YouTube works fine. But I can't get it to mirror my screen on Google Home. I tried giving the permission to Microphone and restarting the app. They are on the same wifi. Why is it not working??? Thank you.

Hello Yuuhi,

Thanks for reaching out and for being a step ahead of us. Please try the additional steps below:

Please make sure your Pixel 6a is running on Android 5.0 or later.
Turn off "Power Saving Mode" on your Android device. Power Saving Mode can limit the processing power of your device which might affect the performance of the Cast Screen feature.
Reinstall the Google Home app.
Reboot your mobile phone.
Use a different mobile device.
Reboot your Chromecast.

Let me know how it goes.

Best,

Jennifer
