While that bug has the potential to break a lot of apps, another issue affects Plex on Shield TV following the Android 11 update. As it turns out, this goes beyond just the new step, as Nvidia says that Shield TV’s Android 11 update actually has a bug that sees the “Allow only while using the app” button acts the same as the “Don’t allow” button when this new permission prompt appears. One of the big issues that Shield TV owners have been complaining about since the release of Android TV 11 has been the storage changes that require apps to ask for permission to access files. Update 1/27: Nvidia has made a hotfix for this update available. Now, Nvidia has confirmed it’s working with Google and Plex to patch these problems. The Shield TV just got its Android TV 11 update last week, but in the time since many Shield TV owners have come out in frustration regarding various bugs surrounding the update.
