Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to pay for the IPTV apps on my LG TV?
IPTV players are made by other companies. Apps like 'SET IPTV' and 'NET IPTV' charge a fee paid directly to the developer, not to us, so check the price and term on their sites.
The app I want isn't in LG's app store. What can I do?
App availability can vary based on your geographical region and your TV's model year. If you cannot find a player, connect an external streaming device, such as a Fire TV Stick running Fire OS.
