Hi there,

Thanks for posting here in the community. I'd be happy to help you with your concerns about casting YouTube from your phone.

In this situation, I'd like to ask a few questions:

• What is the model of your Chromecast?
• Did you see any error code?
• Are you using Android or iOS to cast?
• Do you see any light on the Chromecast?

In the meantime, I suggest the following:

• Make sure your mobile devices and Chromecast are on the same Wi-Fi network.
• Make sure you have the latest versions of the YouTube app and the Google Home app (for Chromecast setup) on your phone. Additionally, check for updates on the Chromecast itself using the Google Home app.
• Restart your Chromecast. Unplug the power cable > wait 3 seconds > plug the power cable back in.

You can find more information in the next article: Troubleshoot Chromecast connection.

Let me know how it goes.

Best regards,

Jenniffer

Many thanks Jenniffer for getting back to me.  I did all of the above last week and reset chromecast and everything is fine now.
