Netflix says 'No devices found'

You might get this message when trying to use your Android phone or tablet, iPhone, or iPad to cast Netflix to a TV.

No Devices Found
Make sure your smart TV, streaming device, and mobile device are all on the same WiFi network.

This message means Netflix couldn't find any cast-compatible devices on your Wi-Fi network.

Check the list of cast-compatible devices below. If the device you want to cast to isn't listed, you'll need to use a physical remote to navigate the Netflix app.

Netflix supports casting to:

  • Chromecast 3rd gen or older (did not come with a physical remote)

  • Google Nest Hub Smart Display

  • Select cast-enabled Vizio TVs

  • Select cast-enabled Compal TVs

  2. Connect your TV or streaming device to the same Wi-Fi network as your mobile phone or tablet.
