Nvidia Shield android app can't type

[loncell]

I've tried the app but I can't type using my phones keyboard. I click on the keyboard symbol top right of the android app and my phones keyboard appears but when I type nothing appears on the TV, any idea's ?

This is a well known glitch. There are better alternative apps to the Shield one. Try this Android TV Remote Control – Apps on Google Play

He needs to type things in. Bit hard to use speech when people have passwords like mInEygzbEizhLw072Heuzhw

Got to admit never had a issue typing in passwords. Horses for courses I suppose.
