Low Memory in WebOS Smart TV

[P K Prabhakar]

Hi, WebOS TV manufacturers!

I have spent Rs. 65000 (About $1000) on my LG WebOS Smart TV. Still I have got only 512mb internal memory. Now my TV has started showing me low memory errors every now and then. It means my TV is no more a smart TV now. It can not play movie on browser for more than half an hour when some other app is open. Immediately it flashes error "running on low memory". What a rubbish thing you have manufactured. Where other TV manufactures e.g. MI, VU, Samsung, etc, are providing more than 2 GB memory in their smart TVs for a price as low as 60% of what you are charging, you are providing a useless memory of 512 mb. What a shit!! Now please tell me the solution to increase my internal memory or else I am going to share my experience on every social media and online market forums.

I know lg webos is shit.You cannot browse google map on it" same memory low problem."

Now they have ruined YouTube app as well. After the update you cannot select the timeline of video via magic remote's mouse, now you have to rely on buttons of remote to forward the video in YouTube which is very slow.

There are no WebOS TV manufacturers here, only users.

The only people that have ruined the YouTube add is YouTube themselves as they write the app...  Not being a programmer I am going to guess that the YouTube app is a Hosted (Server Hosted) app and not a Packaged app, which is why the interface seems to change more regularly than the installed package does.  Perhaps this is the reason the app crashes so much, is there some issue with it fetching data from the YouTube servers and mishandling memory or memory leak?
