Movies and shows are grouped in ways that reflect your interests."
I can't be the only one who _wants_ to be surprised, out of their usual bubble of interest, at least sometimes.
How can one tell this to all these "clever" things?
I owned the Logitech Google TV which I bought for about $300 early in its lifespan. After about a year they shipped some really bad updates to it that made it so slow that it was essentially unuseable and removed several key features, and then never shipped another update to it again.

My Nvidia Shield TV from 2015 is still doing great
Almost a 1:1 copy of the Apple TV app just with a worse copy of website https://www.apple.com/apple-tv-app , not new but ever so disappointing Google adds so little new to ideas they decide to adopt

It costs three years of your life and commitment until they shelve it with 90 days notice.

Similar reaction here. https://store.google.com/us/product/chromecast_google_tv_com... That page is a bit better at explaining things.

The lack of that feature is my biggest gripe with the current dongle. The Cast protocol is a pain in the butt in terms of apps that support it.
I don't know about this device, but what you are describing is the antitheses of how chomecast is intended to work (or at least it was, from the beginning of chromecast to the last time I checked).
The idea is that you never stream anything from your phone, but rather your phone is a remote control and service authentication device for the chromecast.
