Is it possible to install zwift on android tv?

Hi, I’m having some trouble following @Shaun_DaBeast 's steps above. I’ve followed these step-by-step, except instead of using an Android tablet I’ve used my roommate’s Android OnePlus phone. I’ve logged into my Zwift account after the app was installed on his phone, viewed a ride, made note of the app version, force-quit the app, then transferred the obb folder from /Android/obb/com.zwift.zwiftgame on his phone to a USB drive.

I then found the correct APK file version on APKmirror, downloaded that and transferred that to my NVIDIA Shield into the ‘Downloads’ folder. I used a file manager app to then install the apk file. (FYI I am using a 128 GB Samsung USB drive added to my NVIDIA Shield formatted as Internal Storage on the Shield so I have additional space.) After the apk installs, I then transferred the com.zwift.zwiftgame folder’s contents from my USB drive to /Android/obb/com.zwift.zwiftgame on my NVIDIA Shield. (The /Android/obb folder didn’t exist on the NVIDIA Shield after sideloading the APK, so I had to manually create that folder.)

I then open the Zwift app by going to Settings > Apps > All Apps > Zwift. The app loading screen opens and the bottom message says “Verifying Download” and then “Unzipping Files”, but then after the progress bar completes, the screen changes to a small black rectangle over white background in the top right of the TV screen and then the app quits. (see screenshot below) When I go into my Settings > Apps on the Shield then and view the Zwift app, it shows that it’s running. I’ve tried Force Stopping the app, clearing it’s Data/Cache and re-opening it, but it continues trying to verify, unzip, and then quit out. Haven’t made it past that screen. :frowning:

Any thoughts? Has anyone else experienced this? Has anyone gotten this version of Zwift to work on the newest 16GB NVIDIA Shield Pro?

I have the latest version of NVIDIA Shield 16GB Pro model.
I have expanded the NVIDIA’s internal storage w/ a 128GB Samsung USB Drive that I permanently leave in the unit.
Zwift APK I downloaded is the latest version from Google Play store: v1.0.65416
