As the title states we have a Google TV with chromecast on our bedroom tv,I prefer to use the digital remote which is tied up with the Google home app and Google TV app on IOS as we have a toddler who likes to hide remotes.
The problem I am having is a consistent re-pairing required between the Google TV Chromecast & the Google home app where a pairing code will come up on the screen and having to enter it into the remote app.
What am I doing wrong? I’ve tried removing all updates from android remote services on the chromecast as well as refreshing the apps,which will last for a little while but will always end back up with the same problem.
About a year ago there was a stand-alone Android remote app on the AppStore which worked perfect but has since lost support forcing us to use the built in one via Google Home & Google TV apps.
Please help it’s the smallest thing but it’s such a pain,comparing it to the Apple TV in the lounge is just a night and day difference,the Apple TV remote app always works with no problems whatsoever.
Could you check what happens if you cancel the pairing and try simply connecting again manually?
Does the pairing screen show up again after that or does the connection work normally?
