How MarketCast runs on the Nvidia Shield TV

The Nvidia Shield TV has plenty of memory for MarketCast, so it runs the full display: scene cross-fades, the Stock Wall and the Market Desk effects, all as designed.

  • It installs MarketCast from Google Play. Both the standard and Pro versions work.
  • Memory and graphics are well above what MarketCast needs, so nothing is scaled back.
  • A solid choice for a dedicated market screen that will run for years.

What you get, free and in Premium

  • Free: the market stream, business news, price charts, market movers, a portfolio and a watch list, and forex on the ticker tape. Supported by commercials and sponsors.
  • Premium: no commercials, real-time stock prices, crypto around the clock, unlimited custom lists, portfolio news, a daily brief, premium stream scenes, the Stock Wall and Market Desk, and more.

Premium is billed through your TV's app store, which shows the current price for your region. See the plans page for the full comparison.
