The Apple TV app works with the built-in Google Assistant on the Nvidia Shield, allowing users to use "OK Google" voice commands to navigate directly to specific Apple TV+ shows or movies, control playback, and more.
The Apple TV app has been rolling out to a wide variety of platforms in recent months, including the PlayStation, Xbox, and Roku. The app is also available on the "Chromecast with Google TV" dongle, which is also powered by the Android TV platform.

if you have a 4K OLED TV, Apple TV "4K" is very average at best if you want top visual quality for your 4K HDR Dolby content that truly exploit your high end TV vs Nvidia Shield, for real

Come on now, there’s plenty of douches in your town complaining about it’s lack of Find My support too.Waiting for some douche in Dayton, OH to complain about the Shield remote not being found in the Find My app.

Don't get me wrong Apple TV is not useless because of ecosystem synergies but from a technical standpoint and visual quality Nvidia Shield is objectively miles ahead. Just look at some comparisons !

It will be the same thing found on Smart TVs and the PS5, meaning AppleTV+ programming and whatever channels set up within.Does anyone know if its going to be a watered down version then the Apple TV version?

I've found the apps are higher quality on tvOS than on AndroidTV. There is no equivalent to Infuse on AndroidTV.Nvidia Shield is wayyyy better than Apple TV, upscale and processing power are insane, you have to try it to believe it! And support is top notch and last for many year, like they do for their GPU or Apple for their hardware !

I've also read that AndroidTV has started to have essentially homescreen ads. I know they can be turned off, but this is a big downside. I just don't trust Google as much.

The Dayton douche is one of my relatives. The lone Android guy in the family. Should be VERY obvious that as a Navy town, Bremerton is just fine. However, there are Army facilities in Tacoma. When I use the restrooms at the exchange, FTA is on the walls, stalls, everywhere.Come on now, there’s plenty of douches in your town complaining about it’s lack of Find My support too.

PS: i had to use the nvidia remote not the controller. The controller buttons do not work with the UI. So it kinda sucks? not sure why.

Do you know if you get bitstream support for hi-res audio using Plex, with a 2019 Shield as an endpoint?Nice, now I just wish I had the newer Shield with Dolby Vision support but I can't justify upgrading just for that. Maybe come the next model I'll upgrade. Though I do like the AppleTV I just need Plex bitstream support so I feel stuck with the Shield line.
