Chromecast not working after ios14 update

I use google chromecast for casting tv apps on my tv, smart tv and no smart tv (lol). Since ios14 it will not remember the chromecast device on either tv. Two different models and capabilities. I constantly have to reboot the chromecast device when I want to cast an app to either tv. Anybody else have this issue??

This was happening to me. I found this on another search for help, and it works. When I went to Local Network the apps that weren’t casting were turned off. Once turned on. It works! Hope this helps.


  1. On your iOS device’s home screen, tap Settings. 
  2. Tap Privacy  Local Network. You’ll find a list of apps.
  3. Turn on Local Network Access for the app(s) you would like to cast from. This will allow permissions for Cast to discover local devices when casting.

Same here problem still exist, done multiple reset with my Chromecast but apparently the next day I need to reset again🤔

Though my android devices even my desktop and my laptop are casting well.

I'm guessing its really the update, IOS 14.4 affects the problem.

Hoping that it will be OK the soonest. Keep me updated if it clears on your end then i'll do the same.

Thanks.
