Hi Maeb,

Thanks for reaching out. Is this only happening with the Facebook app or across all apps? Please try the steps listed below:

1. Completely close the Facebook app, then reopen.
2. Cast from another Chromecast-enabled app to isolate if the issue is app-related.
3. Turn on Local Network Access for iOS devices. Here's how: go to the phone's Settings > Tap Privacy > Local Network.
4. Make sure the Facebook app is updated. 
5. Clear the Facebook app's cache.
6. Uninstall and reinstall the Facebook app.
7. Reboot your Wi-Fi router.
8. Reboot your Chromecast.
9. Forget the Wi-Fi network and reconnect.
10. Try to cast from another mobile device to isolate if it's a device issue.
11. Reboot your mobile phone.
12. Factory reset your Chromecast.

Let me know how it goes.

Best,

Jennifer
