Stuck in Ambient mode. No YouTube.

[Wildgoose]

The Chromecast 3rd generation is connected to an iPhone 6S and to the same router but in Media will only show Netflix, Disney + and All 4.  

Have rebooted Chromecast and also the iPhone but to no effect.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi Wildgoose,

The Google Home app will only let you link certain video services that then can be used with voice commands for starting shows.

You can cast content from your mobile device from cast enabled websites and apps.

Please have a look at the Google Chromecast help center link below for more information about doing this and let us know if you have any further questions.

Hey there!

We haven't heard back from Wildgoose, and it's been a few days, so I'm locking the thread. As always, feel free to make a new thread if you have any more questions or concerns.

Thank you for your help, Cathal!
