So I’m not sure if it’s been said already but my 2015 Shield is working great with Zwift but I use the game controller to operate Zwift, works great you have a pointer to select stuff and also I bought a cheap ANT+ dongle and that pulls everything in perfect. Wahoo turbo, Garmin heart rate and cadence sensor.
Might help someone.
Zwift please, please, make the app compatible with android TV Nvidia Shield !
They have the app on mobile phones, ipad, macbook and apple tv which have lower performance capabilities than the nvidia shield.
Its almost 2022 something needs to be sorted out.
I’m starting to wonder if anyone on the Zwift development team is even bothering to check the forums ?
The NVIDIA Shield TV would be an awesome 4K device for Zwift, yes we can ‘hack’ Zwift onto the device, but the last time I did that, it looked like 720p to me.
They do check the forums but only reply common topics, I don’t understand why they aren’t officially releasing the app to the nvidia shield.
A couple of years ago Zwift representatives were saying this:
I guess it was canned along with the new UI for Apple TV.
Hello everyone
The subject is old (2019).
Today (December 2021), can we use Zwift with the Nvidia Shield TV Pro as easily as by downloading the application from the Google Store?
No. Android TV is not a supported platform.
Another plug to add Shield TV Pro support. Sideloading is a hassle, every month or so I need to redownload and install, at least let me update automatically…
Latest Zwift update broke the ability of Zwift on my Shield TV Pro to see my Garmin Tacx NEO smart trainer. Any idea how to fix it?
Zwift is working great with my wahoo trainer and shield 2018, using Bluetooth. Why Zwift is not releasing the app in the ATV google store? cmon guys!
Another Nvidia Shield Pro user here.
Zwift support for Shield is a must have, I would rather use my 75inch TV than my 10inch budget android tablet for Zwifting.
I honestly can’t believe this has STILL not been sorted. Poor form by Zwift.
Can you explain how works?
After install zwift, is stopped in screen wellcome with the music, but nothing happed.
Push any button and nothing
Thanks
Just a little motivation for zwift devs to get started:
The Nvidia shield 4k pro supports WAY more BT and BLE devices, as well as ant+ AND it has the option to use any bt gamepad for in game stuff like rideon, erg difficulty and navigation in menues.
It is also has AI upscaling, and zwift allready runs on it, the ONLY thing you have to do is make it available over the play store.
That’s the bare minimum!
PLEASE.
It would love to not be reliant on a gaming computer and bad BT connections or even worse companion app connections, the computer is often occupied with rendering videos when i’m not gaming, and i have to pause rendering to zwift…
I think my boss is going to notice at some point… 
When you get to the welcome screen there are 3 splash screens you have to go through. You can plug in a usb mouse and right-click and drag to the next splash screen or you can press down on the right d-pad and move it left on your game controller
Come on Zwift Devs, the Nvidia Shield is far more capable device than the Apple TV and you already have an Android app in place
How hard it can be to adapt it?
I just bought a Nvidia Shield, hoping it would work with Zwift or Wahoo RGT, it does not.
Still nobody from Zwift that wants to respond to us ?
Another request for this.
Just bought a Zwift Hub and would be great to connect it to my NVIDIA Shield. Its just an Android device and definitely has the power to run a Zwift app in a great experience. Just need Zwift Devs to create it and publish to the Google Play store
Thanks
