Same issue. After my S25 Ultra was updated to Android 16 (One UI 8), it can no longer auto accept a remote connection using the Host app. I get a prompt on the Phone saying "Share your screen with Host?".

There is no way that I know off to make this option permanent.

I have the same issue in our organisation. What I know is that it has to do with the newest Android firmware and I hope that TV it will fix it, because this is almost impossible to use with kiosk devices on Android devices!

I think I have the same problem.

I got for my mum the new Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra with One UI Version 7.0 and Android 15.

I installed on it the TeamViewer Host app today from the google play store and also the Teamviewer Universal Add-On.

I am able to find the phone in Windows 10 Teamviewer account in the new content list.
I try to connect to the phone, in teamviewer it says it will start, but
on the phone there comes the message, that says: "Start recording or casting with Host?".

Only when I push "Start now" on the phone, it works, but this is not an unattened access.

I just found an old/new entry:

Have to allow each time with host app

there it says:

grant TeamViewer the PROJECT_MEDIA permission.

but it looks that is only working when you have to root your mobile phone.
I try to change the settings for the usb development, but the button were not able to change the settings.,
I assume that it is as the device is not rooted.

Please have a look into it.

Thank you,

Alex
