Chromecast and Multiple Users

Greedyfly — Fri, 14 Oct 2022 23:42:24 GMT

I am hoping this community can help with a problem I am having with my new Chromecast device.

Essentially, I can add additional users but they don't seem to be able to do anything - accept I have the option to remove them. My wife and I are unable to switch seamlessly between our own YouTube channels and subscriptions and I can see no real way of doing this other than via casting from our phones which is inconvenient and a worse user experience than that on the Alexa device that it replaced.

Any advice?

Never-mind, it seems factory reset, power cycling and re-adding the accounts did the trick.

Hello there,

As we got our resolution here, I'm going to mark this thread as resolved. I'll go ahead and lock this thread. Should you need help with your Chromecast, feel free to create a new one if you have more questions or have other concerns in the future.

Best,
Alex
