Set the minimum os target to iOS 11.0.
Initialize the Cast context in the application delegate ios/Runner/AppDelegate.m:
import UIKit
import Flutter
import GoogleCast

@UIApplicationMain
@objc class AppDelegate: FlutterAppDelegate, GCKLoggerDelegate {
let kReceiverAppID = kGCKDefaultMediaReceiverApplicationID
let kDebugLoggingEnabled = true

override func application(
_ application: UIApplication,
didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?
) -> Bool {
GeneratedPluginRegistrant.register(with: self)
let criteria = GCKDiscoveryCriteria(applicationID: kReceiverAppID)
let options = GCKCastOptions(discoveryCriteria: criteria)
GCKCastContext.setSharedInstanceWith(options)
GCKCastContext.sharedInstance().useDefaultExpandedMediaControls = true
GCKLogger.sharedInstance().delegate = self
return super.application(application, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: launchOptions)
}
}
