Chromecast not visible, only in Google Home App

My chromecast isn’t visible in apps like youtube and netflix. It does appear in the Google Home app, and I can change the backrgound and other setting here, so it is connected. The only time the chromecast shows up in apps is when I completely reset it, delete all my houses and set is up again. Can anyone help?

Hi, @Mart10,

 

Thank you for reaching out to the community. I apologize that the Chromecast is not appearing as an available casting option within your Google Cast-enabled apps. Let's work together to resolve this inconvenience.

 

To troubleshoot effectively, please provide the following information:

 

 

In the meantime, please check the following:

 

  • Make sure the mobile device, tablet, or computer you're using to cast is on the same Wi-Fi network as your Chromecast, Google TV Streamer (4K), or TV with Google Cast.
  • Ensure that all location permissions are allowed for the casting app. Some cast-enabled apps require location permissions to function properly.

 

For additional information, please refer to this article: Cast video from Google Cast-enabled apps to your TV

 

Please let me know how it goes.

 

Best regards,

 

Ana
