I have Google Home and Chromecast. They previously worked without issue but now will not connect with my iPhone. I’ve done all suggested fixes, tried resetting, restarting and reinstalling the app. My internet and WiFi are working properly but when I try to set up either device I get the same message:
”… may be set up, but we could not communicate with it from your iPhone. Make sure that you have enabled local network access in your iPhone’s privacy settings. Then try again.”
Why have my devices quit communicating with my iPhone?!

Having the exactly same problem. 2nd gen CC, iOS 15.3.

I have two 3rd gen CCs and I saw that iOS had another update: 15.3.1. I installed it hoping it was a fix to the issue but I still cannot connect.
I’ve talked to both Google support and Apple support and no fixes are working. They each say it’s an issue with the other. Apple said Google needs to address the issue and Google said Apple is not cooperating. I told them both that I’m a consumer stuck in the middle and I just want my products to work as they did prior to updating to iOS and if they are no longer going to work together I’d like to know. I’m am now on Twitter DMs community with Google and asked the same question. Waiting on a response.
