youtube TV does not automatically switch profiles when another profile is selected on Chromecast

Our family has a Chromecast with Google TV 4K that we have multiple accounts on it. We switch between these accounts depending on who's using the device.

My mother will sign into her account and open YouTube TV, but YouTube TV will remain logged in under my account. It does not automatically switch even though my account is locked with a PIN.

When I force stop YouTube TV and clear the cache before I turn off the TV, YouTube TV will still remain logged into my account when my mom logs on under her Chromecast account. I have reported this issue to Google. Who else has this issue?

Hi Matt55k,

 

Thank you for reaching out to the community. I'm sorry to hear that YouTube TV doesn't automatically switch profiles when another profile is selected on Google Chromecast. So I'll be more than happy to share information with you.

For now, this feature is not available so we're always looking for ways to improve, and we appreciate your DSCC Feedback Form.

If you have any further questions, please don’t hesitate to reply to this post. I'll be happy to assist you further!
 

Best regards,

Rusell.
