Chromecast Ambient mode on Philips Android TV

by ktaliana

Hello everyone!

I have been trying to enable Chromecast's Ambient mode as a screensaver on a Philips 65PUS7354/12 without success 🙁

Ambient mode is ON when I look in the Google Home App but l cannot find anywhere to enable it on the TV. The funny thing is that when I try to install the official Backdrop app from the Play Store it says it's already installed.

Has anyone been successful at enabling Ambient mode, maybe on a similar Philips TV?

Many thanks in advance!

Enable it as a screen saver from TV settings

Settings-Android settings-Ddevice preferences-Screen saver

I would also like to know more about this.

Try clearing the data of the Backdrop or Chromecast Built In app in the settings.
