If I buy a chromecast audio is it the same as Chromecast? Is it just a case of using a 3.5mm jack cable. Tried looking on the Google website but they dont list the Chromecast audio.

CC and CC Audio are different. CC is for video and has an HDMI connector. CC Audio of for audio and you can use a headphone jack to RCA output or, even better, you can use an optical out.

The Cast app works on Android and iOs.

It's great for what I use it for - streaming extreme quality Spotify into the back of an amp via optical

If, like me, you have two large amps, a mini system and a soundbar it makes it very easy to stream music all over the place.

You can group them if you're into that sort of thing but I'm not bothered.
