Chromecast kid profiles won't load apps

Teryl — Tue, 17 Jan 2023 05:38:57 GMT

I can't load apps on my kids' profiles. I've set up their profiles, but when I go to Manage Apps I get the spinning load sign indefinitely. Apps load fine in the adult profiles. I've searched similar posts and have tried the recommended actions:

1. Restart Chromecast via system restart

2. Reboot via unplugging from power source for 5 minutes.

3. I checked my Family Link settings to see if I have anything overly restricted.

4. I tried restarting my phone.

5. Cleared Chromecast cache.

6. Made sure Chromecast system is up to date.

So far nothing has worked. Help, please!

Hi Teryl,

Thanks for posting and for being a step ahead of us. To cover all the bases, could you try to remove your kid's profile and re-add it? If the issue persists, perform a factory reset on your Chromecast device. Here's a guide: How to factory reset your Chromecast.

Let me know how it goes.

Best,

Jennifer
