How to Find Missing Developer Options on Chromecast (Google TV)
If the Developer Options menu is missing or cannot be enabled on your Google Chromecast (specifically Chromecast with Google TV, as older models don’t run Android and lack this feature), it’s likely due to a failure to activate the menu, outdated firmware, or a device-specific issue. Below are steps to troubleshoot and find or enable the missing Developer Options on Chromecast with Google TV (HD or 4K models) or its successor, Google TV Streamer, based on the latest information available.
Steps to Find or Enable Developer Options
Try the Standard Method to Enable Developer Options:
Navigate to Settings:
On the Chromecast with Google TV home screen, click your profile photo (top right) or press the Select button on the remote’s D-Pad to open the notifications panel.
Select Settings (gear icon).
Go to About:
In the Settings menu, scroll to System - About.
Tap Android TV OS Build:
Locate the Android TV OS Build field and press the Select button on your remote 7 times quickly. You should see toast notifications counting down (e.g., “You are 3 steps away from being a developer”).
After the 7th tap, a message should confirm, “You are now a developer!”
Check for Developer Options:
Return to Settings - System. The Developer Options menu should now appear. Select it and toggle Enable Developer Options to access features like USB debugging or sideloading apps.
