Nvidia Shield TV devices are being updated to Android TV 11
Following months of hints and rumors, Nvidia has made it official: Android TV 11 will come to its Shield TV streamers—yes, all of them—along with a slew of new features, including an updated Gboard and support for aptX Bluetooth headsets.
Based on Android TV 11, Shield Experience 9.0 will begin rolling out today to Shield TV streaming boxes, including the current tube-shaped TV and Pro models from 2019, the 2017 Shield TV from 2017, and even 2015’s original TV and Pro devices.
Among the features Shield TV users can expect include an updated version of Gboard, which will now allow users to perform searches via voice and Google Assistant within any search box, no developer support needed.
