Proceed with extreme caution and do so at your own risk. Unfortunately I do not feel LG can be trusted on initial WebOS release. Wait for the the first patch update after that. E.G. latest LG WebOS (13.30.56) update has very serious bugs. After previous bad experiences with OS updates, I had disabled auto update, but for some reason (I think during the last OS update) it had somehow been re-enabled. Today the update to 13.30.56 was automatically performed by LG without me wanting it and now my soundbar is just buzzing all the time, with no programme audio at all coming tron the TV on ARC.

An Update: LG support eventually got back to me and admitted that the OS update did indeed have a number of reported issues, and that LG are working to resolve them. No date was provided. So my soundboard TV ARC input remains as a loud buzzing sound output and is unwatchable.

      Installation of Norlys App on LG smart TV.
      By Mogens
      On you tube I have found some guidance how to use developer mode, and add other apps on LG TV.
      But it seems I am not able to add Norlys App.
      Are there any suggestions on how to add Norlys App on LG TV?
      Kind regards

      PLEX app on both LG Tv's won't connect after last update
      By DavidSr
      We have two LG TV's that stopped connecting to our PLEX media server after the last update. TImes out saying "Checking connection speed to Raspberrypi" which the PLEX is on
      Upgraded the Mesh Routers before trying anything, still only the PLEX app doesn't work
      Our other TCL TV and Roku and TIVO still work with Plex, so this is only the LG TV's that can't connect anymore.
      Another annoying error after the last update is that any Streaming app (Amazon, Netflix, and DIsney) now fall out of the app and go back to HDMI port 1 if we pause for 30 seconds.  Which we have always done for a Bathroom break or getting drinks.

      How to Get Spotify App on LG Smart TV
      By Annie Yazbeck
      I can't find the Spotify app on the LG Content Store. When I search it, there is no result. Anyone can help me to get Spotify on LG Smart TV? I tried to use DRmare Software to download Spotify songs to USB flash drive and play them on my LG Smart TV offline for free. But I prefer to use it via the Spotify app directly.

      Sky News stopped working after the webOS update
      By Roy Brown
      webOS updated, I think to 2023, on my C2 a couple of days ago. Since then the News option on the Sky News app no longer works, instead timing out. The Weather and Climate options still work, though.
      I have deleted and reloaded the Sky News app, but the problem remains.
      Does anybody have any suggestions of what I might try to get this working again, or is this something for LG, or Sky, to fix?
