Chromecast not working after ios14 update

I’m having the same problem. I have an iPhone Xs with software version 14.4. When I finish connecting the device to wifi, I receive the “enable local network access” error. However, local network access is enabled for both chromecast and google home. What are good next steps for troubleshooting?

Note: I think it is important to differentiate opinion from fact. The following is my research-based opinion:

My conclusion now is that it is NOT the iOS, but that recent changes at Google have had some unexpected results. Google finally retired Google Play Music in favor of YouTube Music which is a paid service. Early on, I uploaded a part of my then music library to Google Play, which was then transferred to YouTubeMusic when it became time to sunset Google Play. I quickly discovered my that I can stream songs that I own, but I cannot stream anything else without a monthly fee. It was at the same time that Chromecast stopped streaming from iOS. Here is the thing: iOS knows the devices are in my network. But they are unreachable. If this is a bug and not a feature as they say, then it is a Google problem. More specifically, I think is is a DRM issue. See the shot below. My RadioTunes app on iOS wants to stream. But the INDIVIDUAL devices are not visible.

How did u unflagg the private adress

Exposing the IP address has nothing to do with the issue. If that worked on a specific iPhone it is coincidental.

In my humble opinion, it may be iOS/music-app related. I generally use the collection of music apps from RadioTunes and it is those which no longer cast properly from iOS. BUT they DO work properly on my Android tablet.

IN ADDITION, the Sirius app works perfectly every time.

The last iOS update contained security strengthening measures. In my humble opinion, the RadioTunes software (and others with which readers here are having trouble) need a tweak to their iOS hook.

In the screen shots below taken on 4/14, RadioTunes wants to connect, but the room list won’t populate.

Sirius, however, works perfectly.

Today I sent an email to RadioTunes and will report back here.

The problem still exists.

I did a factory reset of all of my Chromecast devices, then added them back to my WiFi, all on the same ID. Next, I recreated my groups. The problem cleared, but returned the next day.

In the meantime, my Samsung (Android) tablet is working perfectly - even with also a blend of 2.4Mhz and 5Mhz - which was the case before. And the problem affects my Amazon Fire tablet as well.

I am guessing it will be a while before this problem clears up. (iOS update?)

I may order a cheap Chrome tablet in the meantime. It is irritating.

I have a fix! Contacted Apple support who listened and did a great job.

My issue was an old unused VPN account from years ago that was inactive and turned off (private internet access). I deleted the configuration and reset and bingo!

Settings > general > VPN

After “Settings” you need to click “Privacy” button next. Then you should find “Local Network”

Tried most suggestions here. Nada. Icon in YouTube, but no broadcast from Chromecast. Others not on iOS 14.4 work fine and connect. Oh bother.

I turned on the local network and it still will not work. Any other ideas?

when I clicked on Settings, no option for local network appeared. Suggestions? Iphone11

thank you

does not work... iOS now appears to be incompatible with Chromecast. Either Google broke it, or Apple broke it.

I made sure all devices are using the same NETWORK. Nothing. Reinstalled every device. Nothing.

My google android tablet plays on chrome cast devices. My iPhones stopped working with google.

Hello, would like to ask do you find solution for this? Im expericing the same🥲
