What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Run the Chromecast app on Windows, OS X, iOS and Android 
2. Observe the difference on what Chromecast information they show and where 
they do it.

What is the expected output? 

All platforms to show the same information (especially MAC, IP-address and 
build number (which should be called firmware or build consistently).

What do you see instead?

Windows does show MAC-address, but no IP-address and uses firmware to indicate 
build.
Mac OS X shows neither MAC-address nor IP-address, nor build/firmware.
iOS shows only IP-address (and no MAC-address) in the network settings, but the 
MAC-address is shown with the build to indicate firmware.
Android shows all three in the main screen and uses build to indicate firmware.

All platforms except Windows allow you to reboot the Chromecast.
All platforms allow you to factory reset the Chromecast.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Latest version on all operating systems.

Please provide any additional information below.

Rolling out a suite is all about of consistency. This is far from that.
