Casting Apple Music to my Chrome Cast

Hi, I can't seem to cast Apple Music to my Google Chrome Cast from my iPhone XS. When I opne Apple Music there is no Cast icon. Is it even possible to cast Apple Music to a Chrome Cast? I can cast Youtube, Netflix etc. without any problems. Both my phone and Chrome Cast are on the same WiFi.

Tesla Apple Music integration In the last Tesla software update, Apple Music integration has been added. However explicit content cannot be played although I have it allowed on every device of mine and even on Apple Music website. Anyone has any idea how to toggle explicit content filtering off?

Apple Music Android no longer casts to Google Home Devices I have set Apple Music up as my default music provider on my Google Home. Up until recently, everything worked fine but then I couldn't get any music to play by either voice command or casting. I removed Apple Music from my home and re-linked and set to default music provider again. This enabled me to be able to use voice commands to play music again but I am still unable to cast from my phone. I click the cast button, select the speaker, it beeps and then.. nothing! I've just confirmed that I am able to cast Spotify and Google Podcasts with no issues, so the problem is limited to Apple Music only. Please don't make me switch back to Spotify!

Some songs not downloading in lossless quality in Apple Music for iPhone I just noticed that some of the songs that I downloaded in my library aren't downloaded in lossless quality even though I have lossless downloads turned on. When I erase these songs from my library and stream them using internet they play in lossless quality, and the difference when listening to them is pretty noticeable. I've tried downloading these songs again after deleting them and being able to stream them with lossless audio, but they downloaded in bad quality again. Why is this happening? (In the first picture, a downloaded song, the lossless badge is missing. In the second pictured, the same song being streamed with wi-fi, showing the lossless badge)

Greetings sadeux,

Thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities! It seems you're unable to use your Chromecast to steam music from your iPhone.

Chromecast 3rd Generation shows that Apple Music is a compatible app: Enabled Apps - Google Store

Check out the information in the following article:

Kind regards.
