0 51


The April 2023 patch is now available for Chromecast with Google TV, 9to5google reports.

As the streaming market is growing, Google is also putting more focus on its streaming devices to prepare them for the competition. Industry experts predicted that the video streaming market could hit $416.84 Billion by 2030 (via Bloomberg). Google already revealed that over 150 million monthly active devices are running on Google TV and Android TV.

Last month, the tech giant promised an update for Chromecast that brings app hibernation. The feature could free up storage on your device by archiving inactive apps. Google also claimed the size of Google TV apps is reduced by 25% through using Android App Bundles.

Chromecast with Google TV is now getting an April 2023 patch to become even better and offer a smooth user experience. The update package is dubbed “STTE.230319.008.R1” and weighs 140MB. The Chromecast with Google TV 4K is about to get the update, but the HD model might also be eligible for it. So if you have an HD TV, keep your eyed on the available updates.

The April 2023 update is now available for eligible devices. If you want to check if it’s rolled out to your device, follow Settings > System > About > System update.

Google’s timeline for releasing patches for Chromecast is somehow weird. Back in early April, the company rolled out a second January 2023 security patch for Chromecast with Google TV 4K and HD. That package also brought minor performance improvements and an updated Android security patch level.

While the Chromecast with Google TV users continues to get updates, Google has just announced the first-generation Chromecast will no longer get any updates. The device was first introduced in 2023 and continued to get updates from the company for almost a decade.
