Chromecast app no longer offered from Apple store. Is there a workaround?

I have not used my Chromecast in about two years. It was configured with my Apple i-Phone and worked fine back then. Now Apple doesn't offer the Chromecast App in the Apple Store. I recently subscribed to a few streaming services. None enable me to use my i-Phone to work with Chromecast. What workaround can I do/use to have Chromecast functionality with my i-Phone? It is an older model phone.

Hi @RhymeGuy001 

Download the Google Home app and then use apps such as Netflix, Youtube that have casting enabled.  Cast video from Chromecast-enabled apps to your TV - Chromecast Help

And, here is the link to the Google Home app in Apple's App Store:

Keep in mind that you have to be running iOS 15.0 or later.   I am sorry, there is no workaround for iPhones running older versions of iOS.
