Stop YouTube from casting

As we all know, YouTube is a video sharing platform where users can upload, view, and share videos. Often times, people use YouTube to watch their favorite shows or music videos.

However, there are moments when you just want to watch a video by yourself, without having to share it with others. In these cases, it would be nice if you could stop YouTube from casting.

What is YouTube

YouTube is a video sharing website where users can upload, view, and share videos. The site was created in February 2005 by three former PayPal employees and is now owned by Google.

YouTube is a free app. However, there is also a paid subscription service called YouTube Premium that gives users access to exclusive features such as ad-free videos, offline viewing, and background play.

What is youtube casting and how does it work

When you “cast” a video from your phone to your TV, you’re essentially telling the YouTube app on your phone to send the video to your Chromecast device, which then plays the video on your TV. Casting is mostly used for watching YouTube videos on a TV, but it can also be used to play music from YouTube Music or to show pictures from your phone on a TV. To “cast” a video from your phone to your TV, you’ll need two things: a Chromecast device and the YouTube app. The Chromecast is a small media streaming device that plugs into the HDMI port on your TV. You can learn more about Chromecast here. The YouTube app is available for free on both iPhone and Android.

Once you have both the Chromecast and YouTube app, you’re ready to start casting. Simply open the YouTube app on your phone and find the video you want to watch. Then, tap the “cast” icon in the top right corner of the screen. You’ll then be asked to select the Chromecast device you want to use. Once you select your device, the video will start playing on your TV.

how to disable youtube casting

Now that we know what youtube casting is, let’s learn how to disable it. The process is actually quite simple and only takes a few steps. Press the “menu” icon in the top right corner of the screen. A menu will pop up with several options. One of those options will be “disable casting”. Simply tap that option and the video will stop playing on your TV.

You can also prevent videos from being casted in the first place by opening the settings menu in the YouTube app. Under the “general” tab, there is an option to “prevent casting”. Simply turn that setting on and videos will no longer be casted when you try to play them.

These are just a few ways to stop YouTube from casting. Try out these methods the next time you want to watch a video by yourself!

How to cancel your YouTube subscription?

If you are interested in cancelling your YouTube subscription, the process is actually quite simple. Just follow these steps:

  • Open the YouTube app on your phone and sign in.
  • Tap on the three vertical dots in the top right corner of the screen.
  • A menu will pop up with several options. Tap on “Settings”.
  • Under the “Account” tab, tap on ” YouTube Premium”.
  • Tap on “Cancel Membership”.
  • Confirm that you want to cancel by tapping on “Yes, I’m sure”.
  • You will then be unsubscribed from YouTube Premium and will no longer be charged.

These are the steps you need to take in order to cancel your YouTube subscription. YouTube Premium is a paid subscription service that gives users access to exclusive features such as ad-free videos, offline viewing, and background play. If you’re not interested in these features, or if you’re trying to save money, you might want to cancel your YouTube Premium subscription. Thanks for reading and we hope this article was helpful!
