Google has once again renamed the built-in Chromecast feature. In the future, you should look for 'Google Cast' when buying new TVs, speakers, and other devices.

The rebranding went into effect earlier this month at Google's annual developer conference, I/O 2024, as spotted by 9to5Google.

- "Introducing Google Cast (formerly Chromecast built-in). Google Cast (formerly Chromecast built-in) delivers multi-screen TV and audio experiences with speakers," Google announced.

The 'Google Cast' branding is also reflected on Google's official Android.com website.



Google Cast, again

You may recall that built-in Chromecast was originally called Google Cast around 10 years ago. In 2016, Google rebranded the feature to 'Chromecast built-in' and introduced a logo for TVs, speakers, and other devices.
