Why on earth did Samsung remove the chromecast functionality?

[ClassicRando]

One UI 6 beta fully supported chromecast in smart view, now the official is out, it's been removed, why, and are there any plans to put it back in?

This is the difference between me continuing to be a customer at Samsung (in the last couple of years I've bought the two buds pro, s21ultra, flip 4,s23 ultra, and 3 watches, I'm their ideal customer, but no chromecast is becoming a real deal breaker for me, specially since I replaced all my tvs with Phillips ambilight oled models, and I can't even cast to my fire TV Cube which should be supported?) and me leaving Samsung behind.

Chrome cast is a Google app isn't it, like Chrome is.

thats probably because the betas closed now as the official release is out.

[ClassicRando]

Yes, but it's just software, and Samsung were supporting it. Had been for a couple of months now.

You won't now, beta is finished for the S23 until the next time when that ever is.

[ClassicRando]

Yes, unfortunately I can't flash back to 5.1 and get the beta anymore.

[keith30]

Yes, but there are quite a few things Samsung removed for the Andriod 14 version

[ClassicRando]

I know, that's not the question, the question is why did Samsung add a feature that a lot of people want in bets that worked just fine, and then get rid of it?

[ClassicRando]

It was working on android 14 on the beta this morning, why remove it for the official drop, I only bought this phone because I thought it would have actual chromecast support.

[keith30]

That's Samsung for you, they do things without explaining why they do so.

[ClassicRando]

And that's why they probably just lost a customer
