My Likes are not transferring

by maester_t

I haven't seen anyone else having this problem so I'm starting to wonder if I have a defective device.

I got a new "Chromecast with Google TV" device a few days ago. Trying it out, I think it's absolutely amazing compared to my previous Chromecast, as well as Samsung "smart tv", experiences. (Single hub for watching anything/everything, plus it's hella-fast compared to my "smart tv".)

Yesterday, I spent a bunch of time with the new device and remote, setting a lot of LIKES, DISLIKES, etc. Today when I opened the Google TV app on my PHONE, it doesn't look like any of my Likes transferred over from the Chromecast to my phone.

I'm using the same user credentials. Shouldn't these preferencea/settings be copying over to ALL of my devices?

All that stuff happens on Google's servers so you just have to kind of see how it pans out. Nothing wrong with your device. If it's soemthing you thumbed up inside the device interface, I don't know that it transferrs back to whatever app the content is from. It may only be for helping with recommendations on the device itself.

Yes, they should be transferred/synced over all of your devices but given the fact this is a new device bugs are expected as usual, so I recommend to wait until Google sort it out.
