Any way to stream from iphone to a google nest devices group?

[Frac]

I love Google's feature allowing to stream audio from apps such as Spotify to a speaker group.

Problem is, I find Spotify's user interface unuseable, especially when it comes to podcasts. I love an app called overcast - it's well designed and just works - but it doesn't have native integration with chromecast.

I wonder if there is any way to stream audio - with a hardware usb-c dongle would be okay - from any generic iphone app. I tried looking online, but this use case gets completely lost in the noise of HDMI/video adapters.

Has anyone been successful in doing this?

Thanks!

While direct streaming from third-party iPhone apps like Overcast to Chromecast may not be supported, you can explore using Bluetooth-enabled speakers or devices as an alternative streaming solution. Additionally, researching specific audio casting dongles compatible with iOS devices could provide a workaround for your use case

Thanks! Unfortunately bluetooth doesn't allow streaming to a device group, only to a single device.

My question is exactly about researching audio casting dongles; I've tried doing that, but failed to find any. Has anyone in the community found one that works? Thanks!
