How do you download the latest (3.30.1.6) version of Google Home App for Android?

How do you download the latest (3.30.1.6) version of Google Home App for Android? The App Store only has the 3.30.1.5 version. The App Store version is NOT the version needed to fix the Chromecast.

I did a factory rest on my Chromecast device when the issue appeared a week ago. How can I now get the fix?

VaughnC - On 3/17 Google said "For users who have performed a factory reset, you will need to update your Google Home app to the latest version (3.30.1.6 for Android and 3.30.106 for iOS) to set up your Chromecast (2nd gen) or Chromecast Audio device again. "

However, the 3.30.1.6 version is NOT the latest available version on the Google App Store. I am trying to get an answer as to how to get the correct version.

Apparently, the update will not be available for everyone immediately.. It will roll out worldwide over the next week. I am in Australia and I still haven't received the it.. I am unsure if the update is available according to location or if it is random.

Regardless of when it gets pushed to all users, why isn't it available on a "pull" basis, in other words, available for download? 

I am living in The Netherlands: no update whatsoever either! The Google Play Store shows de Google Home App version 3.30.1.5

This gets very very annoying!

HI folks,

 

Thanks for reaching out. I'm sorry to hear you're having difficulties downloading the latest version of the Google Home app to your phone. I understand your frustration, as this update is important for fixing the Chromecast issue. Don't worry, let's work together to resolve this. To help me do that, I have a few questions:

  • Are you using an Android or iOS device?
  • Have you checked on another phone to see if the Google Home app is available?
  • Have you already reset your phone?

Any additional details you can provide will be helpful.

 

Best Regards,

Jonathan
