TL;DR

  • Netflix has removed support for casting from its mobile apps to most TVs, including Chromecast with Google TV and Google TV Streamer devices.
  • Casting will now only work on older Chromecast models without remotes and TVs with Google Cast.
  • The change applies regardless of whether you’re on an ad-supported or ad-free Netflix plan.
