Overview
- Version 2.2 of the Apple TV app is rolling out via the Google Play Store with built‑in Google Cast support.
- A Cast icon now appears next to the profile avatar and inside the fullscreen player, enabling quick selection of Chromecast and Google TV devices.
- While casting, a miniplayer shows playback info and a timeline, and a fuller screen offers basic controls such as play/pause and 10‑second skip plus audio and subtitles.
- Google Cast support is limited to the Android app; iOS still does not cast to Chromecast, and the Android app does not support AirPlay.
- The update arrives shortly after Netflix removed mobile casting to most modern smart TVs and Chromecast with Google TV devices.
