“Everything should now function normally,” Google writes in an email to affected owners of second-generation Chromecast and Chromecast Audio. It also mentions that a new Google Home app update (version 3.30.1.6 for Android and 3.30.106 for iOS) includes the ability to set up and revive broken-after-reset Chromecast devices. The company didn’t say why the devices stopped working, but a Reddit user found evidence the “untrusted device” error may have been due to an expired certificate baked into the now-discontinued devices.
Google says the new Google Home app update is rolling out starting today and “may take a few days to roll out to everyone.” The company will post any updates on the situation on the Google Nest Community page.
