| Google Cast | Partly works | Pairs unpair, ignore commands, freeze; cheap but headaches; MA playback cannot skip tracksSaved copyOh boy. I really don't feel like typing it out again, but... - I have 3 Nest Audios, 4 Nest Minis, and 4 Home Minis - Speaker pairs constantly unpair and need to be factory reset - They constantly refuse to acknowledge commands - They just... stop. No lights, no touch response, nothing - They intermittently claim to have lost WiFi, despite all other IoT devices around them working. This has persisted through half a dozen routers, three ISPs, WiFi 4, 5, and 6, Multicast snooping enabled, disabled, subnet routing enabled, disabled, DNS on default, Google DNS, DNSSEC enabled/disabled, etc. etc. … Excerpt saved from the Arctic Shift Reddit archive on 2026-10-23. | Reddit comment · 2024-02 |

In ReReHome
Once Home Assistant’s HomeKit Bridge shares it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Home Assistant bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
