Features & Capabilities

The NVIDIA SHIELD TV mobile control extension lets you control SHIELD from your phone, making GeForce NOW logins and in-game navigation faster.

User Reviews

The app can see and control multiple Shield devices and includes a handy finder feature, but is plagued by repeated connectivity failures, keyboard/input problems, and laggy navigation. Timeouts and crashes force restarts, making it unreliable. It’s usable when stable, but frequent instability overshadows the positives.

Pros

Multi-device visibility and control (sees and controls multiple Shield devices).
Finder remote feature is handy/useful.
When functioning properly, the app can control devices smoothly without issues.

Cons

Frequent disconnects and unreliable pairing/connectivity; devices drop or fail to stay linked.
Keyboard/text entry is broken or inaccessible (keyboard not opening, text box issues) causing input failures.
Input/navigation performance is inconsistent: trackpad/ D-pad swipes can be erratic or laggy.
Overall instability with timeouts, crashes, and frequent restarts needed.

Recent reviews

As a remote control, the lack of any tactile buttons makes this app painful to use, but the fact that it disconnects every minute or 2 is what really makes this infuriating to use. It used to include a handy “find my remote” feature that was great if you lost the remote control, but the devs brilliantly decided to remove that one thing that this app WAS good for. Now it’s just more useless junk on your phone stealing your data. Avoid this at all costs.
