Just tried to set this up in the UK and it just plain doesn't work. The Alexa app fails to detect the Shield TV after linking with the Nvidia account on the device. Totally hopeless. Don't waste your time Update: Apparently Nvidia released an update on 08/12/2020 but its still not available in the UK play store and we can't update beyond the August 2020 version. Still hopeless.

Using Alexa devices whilst living in Australia, means we can't install the Nvidia Shield TV Alexa skill because Nvidia have chosen to not publish it to AU customers, so this app is completely useless to me.
