Removing Restricted Mode From Chromecast

I am trying to remove the restricted mode from my chromecasts but when I go into the Home app-settings-digital wellbeing, it is only showing our speakers, none of the chromecasts.

If I disable it on the speakers will that then mean that it is disabled on the chromecasts that are in the same room?

Hi @nwinston1978 

Please try changing your Chromecast settings within the Google Home app.

  1. Open the Google Home app.
  2. Touch and hold your Chromecast's tile.
  3. Tap the settings cog > Notifications & digital wellbeing > YouTube settings.
  4. Under “Use Restricted Mode,” turn off Restrict for me on this device or Restrict for unrecognized users on this device.

I don't have a  notifications and digital wellbeing option when I press the cog.

Hi folks,

 

Thanks for the help here, RXShorty.

 

Nwinston1978, thanks for reaching out. It sounds like a YouTube setting. Check out Turn Restricted Mode on or off on YouTube - Computer - YouTube Help 

 

I hope this helps.

 

Regards,

Juni
