for anyone trying this with an iphone, you need 2 phones (i did it with 2 iphones) turned on hotspot on one and connected to it with the other before starting the setup. also when you connect to the hotspot, click the info ℹ️ next to the hotspot name and turn off all toggles (privacy protection and maximize cap and all else) it’s going to give you a privacy warning but this is the only way i was able to connect after trying again and again. after turning everything off and trying again it was able to connect finally. hope it helps all fellow iphone users as it was a bit of a headache but i didn’t give up 😅

SUCCESS! I've been trying for ages (5 yrs on and off?) to overcome hotel rooms where there is a password to connect so the hotel wifi: the key moment (for me) was at 1.43 where it is explained '"the trick is..." and it worked. thanks Sam...maybe you might post a vid under the title 'how to chromecast when the hotel wifi has a password but also, to any vid, add the advice, that once you've connected everything up as instructed, go into your phone and connect to the hotel WIFI so as to not use your mobile data...maybe I've got that wrong but I've just done it and all is still working.

UPDATE: EURIKA, it worked!!! I can't tell you how many twists & turns I had to do differently from your step-by-step instructions, but I somehow got it all to work... YAY!!! Thank you, THANK YOU!!! I just got a new phone, so everything was disconnected, and I/we were seriously bummed b/c I've always had to ask someone to connect our Chromecast. Thanks to your clear instructions, I was able to do it all myself just now, even though I'm not sure how since my gadget(s) kept giving me error messages when following your instructions. None of that matters now, b/c IT WORKS! LOVE YOU Sam! I "like" AND I "subscribed." Can't wait to see what other tips I can learn from you! 💕👍 Now I'm going to set this up in the bedroom. 😊 S.O.S... can you (or someone) help? At the point when it asks me to turn on the Wi-Fi, after flicking on Wi-Fi (w/out clicking on anything), it tells me "Warning: Turning ON Wi-Fi will turn OFF Mobile Hotspot." ...I'm about to click on OK, but given what the warning says, I'm guessing this won't work for me. Any suggestions?

For Samsung Galaxy S23 (Ultra) users: I was able to get this to work after a bunch of messing around. The main thing I did differently than in the video was that in the hotspot settings, I went to "Configure" --> "Advanced", and then I enabled the option for "Wi-Fi Sharing". I then saved the settings, turned my Wi-Fi back on, and connected to my home Wi-Fi network. I also disabled my "AdGuard" local VPN as I suspect that may have been interfering. Then I was able to go back into the Google Home app, enter the "other network" settings for the chromecast, and then try to save it a few times. It still acted like it couldn't connect to the chromecast the first few times, but eventually it got to the screen where it just says "Connecting your chromecast" or "Trying to connect" or something like that for more than 30 seconds. When it was stuck there for a while, I force quit the Google Home app, and after I opened it back up, the Chromecast was there, and I was able to cast to it 👍

@explosivelybrilliant OMG...Truly, you are brilliant 👏🏽 😀 👌. I have 2 Chromecasr. For over 7 years, I've tried everything possible to connect my phone data to my Chromecast. Samsung reps kept telling me it was impossible. My network said the same, too. There's no videos explaining what you've shared with us, which is priceless. I only found out yesterday that mirroring and using phone data are totally 2 separate things 🤯. Once i knew this, everything fell into place. For several years, ppl and self-help videos were saying that all you need to do is mirror. They made out that WiFi & data are in mirroring.😂 Again, thanks to your info that said "wifi sharing," for the 1st time, I was able to mirror on to my TV using the Samsung app. I can now activate my video doorbell, too, by using wifi sharing option. Thank you.😊❤

I am facing the same problem here. What is going on is that in order for you to connect to your chromecast you will need your wifi on (note that it will force your hotspot to be off if you do on your wifi). Yes then you can connect to your chromecast... However when you now connect to a network (you won't be able to connect to Hotspot at this moment... As it was off on the previous step). So if you attempt to turn on your Hotspot, then your wifi will be off... Then now it will state that you aren't able to find your chromecast as it is nowhere to be found as you aren't in a networkx as your wifi is off at this stage. That is where we are stuck.
