  • Kinda. I recently got a shield pro to replace my roku. Customization, and no ads are nice, but for what it cost, what a fucking piece of shit. Hard freezee that require unplugging is the main issue, but it also doesn’t respond to remote presses frequently on start up. Takes 30+ seconds sometimes before the remote works.

    For more than double the cost it shoukd blow the roku ultra away in every sense. And I shouldn’t have to adb hack it to install a custom launcher.
















  • I don’t recall if it was mandatory during setup or not. I can control it locally when the internet is down, at least from the wall, I don’t think the app would work. But again, I wanted the remote features so I didn’t even try to set it up without an account.

    Home assistant may work as well, but I don’t use it.
