Apple TV adds Google Cast streaming, but only on Android
The Verge••technology
Key Points:
- Apple TV's Android app now supports Google Cast, making it easier for Android users to stream Apple TV content to their TVs.
- Google Cast support is exclusive to the Android version; the iOS version still does not offer this feature, nor does the Android app support AirPlay.
- This update addresses a key missing feature since the Android app's launch earlier this year and follows Netflix's recent removal of casting support to most smart TVs.
- Users need to update the Apple TV app to version 2.2 to access the Google Cast option, which appears as a cast button on the playback screen.
