It used to work more, but recently the app doesn't communicate with my shield properly (I cannot use directions, select, go back etc but the page with icons I can open netflix for example). I've tried making sure everything updated, rebooting, uninstall-reinstall. Last time this happened it magically started working a week later. If you want a NVDIA shield do not lose the remote because the app is unreliable and you will be left unable to watch anything.

After the shield 9.2 update, the app no longer works "UNLESS" you uninstall the Tegra updater updates in the system apps. I unistalled the system Tegra updates & the Google playstore remote works again. Get it together, guys. I also uninstalled Google updates too in all phones & the shield itself. It's crazy to think you geniuses did this on purpose.

I am editing my review for a simple reason. Since initial connection, the app will neither find my Shield on the network or remain connected when paired via ip address. Please fix this ASAP. Even more important than the other issues listed. Even the best designed remote app is useless if it will not remain connected. Original review follows: I loved the first run. A few glaring issues that you can easily fix. There is no way to scroll in the mouse mode. You could easily implement the 2 fingered scroll that many of us are used to. Or a scroll portion of the mouse pad. Slide scrolling through the UI would be much easier to use than even the dpad. You could even do both on the same interface, allowing up, down, left, right gestures to move through the desktop.
