Just in time for new hardware, which should be arriving next Monday, NVIDIA has updated its official SHIELD TV app. The update includes a completely revamped UI, controls for launching apps, new control interfaces, plus voice controls via Google Assistant.
As you can see in the header image above, there’s a UI that contains your library of apps, which you can launch on SHIELD TV from your device. The same can be done with game titles.
