Why can’t I screen share iPhone to Chromecast? I’ve tried using the Google Home app and some screen mirroring apps, but nothing seems to work. My iPhone is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as the Chromecast.
Any help would be appreciated!
Screen sharing from an iPhone to Chromecast can be a bit tricky because iPhones don’t support Chromecast directly. That’s why it’s not showing up as an option when you try to cast.
A good way to solve this is by using an app called DoCast. It’s made for screen mirroring from iPhones to Chromecast. Just download DoCast from the App Store, connect your iPhone and Chromecast to the same Wi-Fi, and follow the steps in the app. It should let you screen share iPhone to Chromecast without any problems.
Also, make sure both your iPhone and Chromecast are updated to the latest version, as this can help avoid connection issues. Hope this helps!

Exactly @j.collins that’s the issue - iPhones and Chromecasts don’t naturally work together for screen sharing because iPhones don’t support Chromecast natively.
And by the way, Google Home doesn’t have a screen mirroring feature for iPhones at all, which is probably why you’re having trouble. That’s why an app like DoCast is a great solution - it’s designed to work around this limitation and makes screen mirroring from your iPhone to Chromecast really easy. Once you try it, you should see a big difference!
