Nvidia has finally put an end to GeForce Experience as the latest Game Ready drivers replace the old software with new Nvidia App. The new app aims to streamline the user experience and make drive installs a bit easier, as the app does not require a mandatory login. Furthermore, it also adds other functionality.

The app was in open beta for quite some time before it was officially released as a standalone installation in early November. A month later, it now comes as a mandatory update, replacing the GeForce Experience with the GeForce 566.36 driver.

An all-over upgrade for gamers?

The new Nvidia App brings much requested features that the community had been asking for years, with the best addition being the removal of login to install drivers or do anything else. Gamers now also have the option to record 4K 120 FPS using AV1 video capture.

Other changes include an overhaul of the UI to bring all necessary options to tweak game or PC/GPU setting relatively quickly. There is also a separate redemption section where users can redeem GeForce rewards for games and apps.

As for how much better the Nvidia App is compared to the GeForce Experience, anyone upgrading should not feel anything different. Instead, some things are much quicker compared to the old app while providing some additional features which the company plans of improving further and expanding more in the future updates.
