Why am I being prompted 'You're already casting another app in Smart View"?

[islandstyls]

I was using Smart View from inside Samsung Internet to cast to my Samsung TV with no problems for a long while now and have never seen this prompt.. "You're already casting another app with Smart View". I can't figure out what app that might be or how to reset it. Any help would be appreciated, as I've Googled and not found a fix.

Does rebooting the phone work? Can you initiate Smart View for other apps/screen mirroring?

Rebooting did not work. I usually only see the Smart View function pop up in the browser so I'm not sure how to test it otherwise.

On your phone Settings look up SmartView (or long-press the tile in your Quick Access bar) and check, is there anything 'running' there?

Welcome to AC!

Which Samsung device you have?

When it said that what app were you in ?

When I long press SmartView from the quick access bar it just searches for devices to connect to, doesn't show that anything is running.

I'm using a Galaxy S21 and I'm getting the message when trying to SmartView a video from Samsung Internet.

Try initiating it from the Settings tile. Do you get the same error?
