Cast button not present in google home app

There used to be a cast my audio button in the google home app, but I can't see it any longer.
And also in Spotify when I choose nest mini to cast my audio, it loads forever.
It used to be earlier, but it is no longer available.

Hi amritansh,

Mirroring a mobile devices screen or audio from the Google Home app using the cast protocol is only available from Android devices.

Hey there,

We appreciate your insights, Cathal_S!

amritansh Casting Android audio is only available on devices running Android 4.4.2 or higher. Also, Power Saving Mode on an Android device can limit the processing power of the mobile device, which could affect the performance of the Cast Audio feature. Check this guide for additional information. Hope this helps!

Thanks,

Alex
