Nvidia App - the new replacement for the Legacy Nvidia Control Panel,Geforce Experience and RTX Experience

FFS Nvidia. I'm still using the RTX mod instead for some games which works great, so they can do one.

Call me negative Nancy, but all I forsee are troubles ahead when they no doubt force phase out the old control panel, which does everything I want and need. I do some weird stuff with custom resolutions that I guarantee won't make it to this 'update'. But it's got chat RTX I hear you cry so you can talk to your word docs! - **** OFF, and just make things work that your customers actually want.

Really don't understand why it's so hard for them or if they are even bothered to sort it out. RTX HDR works flawlessly on videos in a browser and this has not been turned off for me since they added the feature, and this works just fine with multiple screens, even dragging a video from a non HDR screen to a HDR one works fine and activates/deactivates accordingly, and even woks great when gaming at the same time. So I would love to know why they haven't bothered to sort this out when modders fixed it ages ago and even Windows 11 has no issues with a feature like this.

Nice. Using an LG TV, I'd always have to fall back to the control panel to toggle this.
 
I am still wondering what the benefit would be for me.
I tried installing it, then uninstalled it ten minutes later!
All my games are Steam, and the app doesn't even find them all. If found 16 out of the 80 than I have installed.
It also concerns me slightly that I couldn't see a way of opting out of the data collection without creating an account :cry:
It just didn't seem to do anything other than add advertising?
I suppose I need to spend more time with it.
 
I’m personally extremely happy that they’re updating the control panel and bringing it up to date, because the last time it had a proper overhaul was in the Windows XP days so it was massively overdue.

yeah thats the point, but i hope they keep the control panel alive because it would be more preferred in an official setting
nvidia trying to solve a problem that doesnt exist and blindly emulating competition (who are so far behind that they seem to have given up altogether)

No, they are not going to. I believe the plan is to remove the Control Panel as soon as they have a full release of the new app. It's the only reason I have been looking at it - because I know it's going to be forced on us pretty soon.
The jury is still out for me. I suppose my main concern is extra complexity that I don't want, and the advertising and privacy. I will wait until the mainstream start to investigate the app. It is, however, a nicer looking app and easy to use.

It's about time the old control panel was scrapped, the UI still has icons from Windows XP, CRT icons and still showing single slot GPU that appears to be a 7800 GT or close to it for christ sake, the least they could have done is change the over 23yr old icons!. Not to mention, the UI is sluggish no matter how much power you throw at it, the video above shows that nicely. The new Nvidia app in comparison is very refreshing, much faster and extremely snappy. The old control panel should have been updated over a decade ago.
