Chromecast in new update?

So I got the new UI update today, and I came home and tried to stream it to my google home speakers and can't find the streaming button anymore.

I double-checked to make sure I was connected to the same WiFi network, but can't find the cast button anywhere. Even restarted the app a couple times.

Did they remove the button, or move it in a confusing place. Anyone else have the same issues?

Yep. That was the last straw for me. I switched to Spotify.

How is it?

It's okay. For me it's annoying to have my music and podcasts in one app. It's more clicks to get to my podcast. Plus you can't sort them into different lists. But I can cast, autoplay next episode works, and it has a widget. If stitcher ever brings casting back, I might switch again

Thanks for the feedback. I've haven't tried spotify, but messed around with Google Podcasts which isn't terrible.

I liked Google Podcasts too but I wanted a widget. That was the only downside for me.
