I hope LG check this forum.

  • Powerful Browser App like Google Chrome that is able to play videos of Amazon Prime, the default browser  is like Kids play, taking ages to load.
  • Able to control streaming quality in apps like Prime Video, Hotstar, NetFlix, Sunnxt etc., i do not understand how hard for any developer to put this feature in app, I think  WebOS SDK expose this to developer to provide this feature.
  • File Explorer that allow us to store data in TV
  • Wifi file Transfer App like ShareIT(Android)
  • More Apps(MX Player, Jio Tv, Jio Cinema, Airtel Xtreme,  VLC Player etc.....)... i feel the most apps available in the content store are crap and useless

 Actually i did not do much research before purchasing UK6360PTE TV, I never expected this much difference from Android TV, i do not know how LG even thinking to compete with this WebOS , because people are getting intelligent and do research before purchase of a TV. they definitely find Android TVs more feature rich.

Porting Google Chrome to another platform isn't really possible, the code is closed-source. I think what you mean is it's open-source counterpart, Chromium... Which is already what the browser uses under the hood, as far as I know. The issue is, it's a super out-of-date version. If the TV can run the old version, there's no reason it can't run the new version. LG needs to update it.

Flash player is definitely not going to happen though... It's officially dead as of 2020... Even Google Chrome and Firefox will be removing it.

A better File Explorer actually would be very nice. Storing files on the TV and being able to change those ugly ass default no-signal wallpapers like you can on a Chromecast would be a godsend IMO.

As for the app selection, it is pretty poor, but most of the essentials are there. VLC Player would be real nice and could definitely be ported to the TV since it is ARM Linux based... Too bad LG doesn't allow app developers direct access to the OS, making such a port impossible! The only way a VLC Player could be ported is if someone finds a way to jailbreak the TV, iPhone-style... And I really hope that happens.

Btw see my related topic about the browser needing updating here:

      Greetings.
      A huge problem is connecting an external drive/flash drive to a TV with webos with a large number of files.
      It starts scanning all folders, which can take up to 20 minutes. Which is unacceptably long.
      On the netcast platform, everything was instant. Maybe it creates previews...maybe something else...
      How to disable disk scanning by the webos platform?

      LG is dedicated to enriching the lives of people in the communities where it operates. Recently, LG offices in Vietnam and Thailand made significant contributions by donating various LG products to support local initiatives. These acts of generosity underscore LG’s global commitment to corporate social responsibility and demonstrate the positive impact a company can have when it invests in the well-being of its local communities.

      In Vietnam, the Lunar New Year, or Tet, is a time of family reunions and shared experiences, with television playing a central role in these celebrations. To enhance the Tet experience for the people of Yen Bai Province, LG Vietnam donated 40 LG TVs to families who suffered significant losses during Typhoon Yagi. As part of its annual campaign, “Tet Nha la Tet Nhat” (Family Tet is the Best Tet), LG Vietnam extended support to 40 households facing severe hardships, including families of war veterans and those with meritorious services to the revolution, in the districts of Van Yen, Luc Yen and Tran Yen.

      No district suffered the wrath of Typhoon Yagi more than Van Yen, where the natural disaster destroyed vast areas, damaging, eroding or completely destroying countless houses. Large stretches of cropland along the rivers and streams were submerged in deep water, causing havoc to the lives and livelihoods of the locals. Last year,
      link hidden, please login to views to provide much-needed assistance to these people.
      Since Tet 2024, LG kicked off the “Tet Nha la Tet Nhat” campaign, named after the respected proverb “Tet Nhat.” “Tet” represents a meaningful time of year when Vietnamese people prepare the best for their families, while “Nhat,” meaning “best,” aligns with LG OLED TV’s global leadership and the world-class quality of its advanced products.

      The Year of the Snake marks 30 years of LG’s presence in Vietnam, symbolizing a deep commitment to continuous innovation and creative solutions for smart living. This milestone reflects LG’s dedication to improving the lives of Vietnamese customers and fulfilling its Life’s Good vision.

      In Thailand, LG recently donated 50 LG gram laptops to the Thailand Collaboration for Education (TCFE) program, an initiative of the Yuvabadhana Foundation. This donation, valued at over 2,301,000 baht (USD 68,000), will benefit over 400 students at Nikomphimaisuksa School in Nakhon Ratchasima province and Piyabut School in Lopburi province, both of which lack adequate computer equipment for effective digital learning.

      The donated laptops are high-performance, lightweight LG gram models equipped with Intel Core Ultra 5 Processors, making them ideal for modern AI software applications. Students in lower secondary school (Mathayom 1-3) will use these laptops to access digital curricula in science, mathematics and English. Upper secondary students (Mathayom 4-6) will leverage the laptops’ AI capabilities for advanced learning, including data analysis and enhanced comprehension.

      The TCFE program aims to reduce educational inequality and promote sustainable education in Thailand by focusing on four key areas: educational accessibility, teaching and learning quality development, life skills and moral cultivation and nutrition support. LG’s laptop donation directly supports two of these areas: improving access to education by providing equipment to remote schools and enhancing teaching and learning quality by enabling digital curriculum implementation.

      This donation reflects LG’s belief in the transformative power of AI in education and its commitment to ensuring all Thai youth have access to this technology. The company views this donation as part of its ongoing support for AI education in Thailand, which includes equipment donations, expertise sharing and future initiatives.
      From providing essential appliances to enhancing educational opportunities, LG Vietnam and LG Thailand are actively making a difference in the lives of those around them. To learn more about the activities of LG offices around the globe, visit the .

      I’d love to see a new feature in the next software update where the sound mode automatically adjusts based on the app being used. For example, when opening music apps like Apple Music or Spotify, the sound mode could switch to Music Mode, and for streaming apps like Netflix or Prime Video, it could switch to Cinema Mode.This addition would make the user experience so much smoother and more convenient!
