JAKARTA Netflix removed casting support, namely the ability to transmit shows from cell phones to television. Termination of this feature has been applied to most televisions.
The newly updated help page on the Netflix website states that the streaming service no longer supports casting from mobile devices. Instead, Netflix directs users to navigate live apps from television.
This change appears to have been implemented in recent weeks without official notification. A user on Reddit, reported from The Verge, reported that casting support had been removed since November 10.
In line with the Netflix page update, the casting option disappeared from the app after it was updated. However, transmission from phone to television can still be done on older versions of the Netflix app.

Not only depending on the application, casting support is also still available on older Chromecast devices or TVs that support Google Cast natively. However, this access is limited to customers with more expensive ad-free packages.
Changes in support on the casting feature are not accompanied by explanations as to why the feature was removed. This move is similar to Netflix's actions that removed AirPlay's support in 2019.
At the time, Netflix said it wanted to 'ensure our viewing quality standards are met' by removing AirPlay. Netflix currently has not made official comments regarding removing the casting feature from cell phones to television.
