Console mode is now useless on my tablet because the option to add your own games to the list is gone. Also, who thought it was a good idea for the "My games" and "Android" pages to launch the Play Store entry for the game instead of starting the game?

This app used to be pretty decent (not perfect, but good). After the new design overhaul, it's horrible. Navigating has become a real pain - it takes much more work to find what I want, and some of the features that were a big reason for using this app (like the ability to see controller compatibility in games and look at only games that offer that option) are gone. Now Android and Geforce games are all mixed together, which makes it harder to find each. As things are, the only time I'll be using this app is to launch my Geforce games (and only because it's the only way to do so). For everything else, it's now worthless. Please go back to the old layout - it was far better than this!

Jason Wentzel

The new layout makes it impossible to search for only android games. It lumps all the Android and gforce now games together. Also no longer search for games that support controllers

Kristian Williams

Was hoping to see the ability to add custom Android games back, but nope... Still no real reason to use the app as I can't know which apps are displayed there. 😐

Sebastian Chavez

Terrible! Nvidia removed the option to access media apps and customize shortcuts, now I can't access many of my games and apps when I'm conected to the TV... hope they realize what a huge mistake has been made here and fix it.

Trent Loftis

New update won't let me play anymore? :(

Own the whole set - original Shield Tablet, Shield Portable, Shield TV, and a subscriber. Have two PCs with GeForce Experience installed where I'm signed in but neither appear in new app. My app only shows Games, News, and Settings in left bar on tablet too. Not at all happy with new changes. Really slow, can't add games, cannot view / play online games. Will give few days to test and hope changes come, but if nothing changes will at least cancel subscription.

Spaz Matic June 2, 2017

Mega fail Nvidia! I'm not a member of your streaming service but I own a shield k1 tablet and i really liked being able to open the shield hub and find games that were controller compatible and I also liked to keep up on the latest news but you decided to turn your app into an advertisement for your streaming service only so I'm done with this lame app as it doesn't show controller compatible games and it loads super slow on your own tablet! Way to go nvidia you screwed up Shield Hub real good! Disabling lame nvidia games app! Good by!

Ramon Grimaldo June 2, 2017

In my opinion, this new replacement is way better than the first. On my Shield tablet console mode, it actually feels like console mode. Unlike the first hub, it just felt like a projection of the tablet. Well done Nvidia. I take my hat off for you.

Kevin Cox June 2, 2017

New version doesn't let you add games not auto detected by the app. Preferred previous versions hub, it had a UI that separated things clearly. Also clicking a game you have installed now takes you to the Google play store page rather than launching the app/game when in My Games library. Also missing a picture or icon for some games.

Daniel Stretton June 4, 2017

Oh dear nvidia. I really used shield hub beforewhich fit my needs well for games and media. This is awful and cannot manually add my apps and all media apps gone. How can I go back to the old version as this is not fit for purpose?

Jason Grant June 2, 2017

I love the new layout... But one thing its missing is information of weather games have full controller support or not. Or at least from what I can tell anyway

Jeff Jeglinski June 5, 2017

I used the old version all the time. It listed all my installed games and media apps. Those features are now gone..... I cannot add installed games. The interface is slow. It has become only an advertisement for gforce now and partners. There are some minor visual improvements, but the loss of functionality far outweighs it all. Waiting for an update to fix, or just uninstalling....

Nemisus DM June 4, 2017

Way to ruin a functioning app... Where is the list of Shield Controller ready Android games????? WTH, now you are shunning your own products, developers and customers. 👎👎👎

1chi TheKilr June 4, 2017

I love the new layout but I HATE that I can't add non NVIDIA supported titles! More than half the games on my device aren't NVIDIA endorsed so they don't even show up anymore, and there's NO WAY to add them in! Also, my internet connection is horrible and I could never feasibly use GeforceNOW, so it would be nice if those games could be recommended in a SEPARATE place from the Android titles. They had a great app, but screwed it all up. The layout looks much cooler, but the new annoyances aren't worth it. I can't use GeforceNOW or add my other Android games to my games list! Put ALL GeforceNOW content into a separate tab on the side bar, and let me add my games! Shenanigans!

Curtice Morris June 2, 2017

Love the new UI, but some nice features from the old version are no longer there, like adding owned games to the list & being able to tell if a game is controller compatible. Also some games that are listed don't have cover art, and that makes it look sloppy. Also like that Android games are now directed straight to Google Play. You are moving in a good direction, just needs a little more work.

Eric Heydenreich June 2, 2017

You made it to complex for what it is! Now everything is jumbled together and just a mess, plus it takes 20 seconds to load the game page👎👎👎 so consider the customer and not your compensation.

Heath Stevens June 21, 2017

I love Nvidia, especially my Shield tablet. And I can use with my PC too.

Sadhula Sumanth June 21, 2017

New update is worse. Previously it used show the games organised and much cleaner. The previous version was awesome. Hope you revert o the previous version.

Round Robin June 4, 2017

What happened?! Happy to uninstall. It was mediocre before but now it's just an ad space.

Cai Lehwald June 6, 2017

The old app was much more user friendly and responsive. This new app is ugly in comparison.

Gabriel Arocha June 12, 2017

Love streaming my games from my PC. Smooth, but I have great internet and the most I can get is 2 bars of wifi signal in the top right corner. Why can't I get all four? I've done everything... 200mbps A/C /N internet...

Piotr Mieczkowski June 3, 2017

No longer able to access my apps in console mode.

Brandon Lee June 2, 2017

It was better when it was shield hub. Please bring back the old layout on the K1. The "controller" page was very helpful and needs a comeback.

Mark Wilk June 4, 2017

This was a place to see all of my games but now I can only see Nvidia supported games making this app useless to me.

IA June 4, 2017

The new UI is nice but the app icon in not, plus they removed the media apps section and the ability to manually add games or media apps to their respective section.

Viktor Sokyrko June 4, 2017

After the update it became useless... What have you done nVidia?

Thien Phuc Tran June 10, 2017

I'm very like this app but it crash in this version, app cannot run after restart, fix this nvidia and I will give you a good review

Preston136 - June 1, 2017

I can't add games to my game list!

April S June 6, 2017

Force closes immediately after tapping to open app. Will not open. How do I downgrade to previous version?

Jack Hubbard June 10, 2017

Stripped down / Proprietorial...nvidia Ruined a good thing

Juve Zavala June 20, 2017

Needs to showcase verified controller compatible games like shield hub did before.

Adrian Danks June 18, 2017

Hector Resu June 8, 2017

Yeah, I'm no longer updating this garbage app. My current version detects my PC games just fine, not that I use it much due to issues. Current reviews say you can't add games that aren't supported and has become more unusable. I love Nvidia products, I've always had great experiences with them. That's why I can't understand how you keep turning what could be a great app into a complete mess.

Rodney Just April 8, 2017

Used to be awesome till they started charging for streaming on a PORTABLE system?! Remake games like HL2 and charge for those, charging for streaming old games is pathetic. The UI sucks now too...slow and choppy.

James Shamray June 16, 2017

I have disabled this app. It would keep giving me notifications to join shield rewards, with no way to turn them off. I tried blocking and turning them off with no success. So far, so good.

daniel anderson April 14, 2017

Stopped using when beta stopped since you had to pay, I have PC for games, this made it easier , not paying for it though sadly.....unless release games come out like blackops3 etccray concept, failed because inevitable payments that happening
