LG WebOs for Jio App &Hot star App

[Ganesh kannan R]

LG Team,

 

Recently brought the LG 49 " 4K TV. But looks like made a big mistake brought the fully smart TV with LG.  Many apps not available like Jio/Hot star apps into the smart . SO FINALLY LG is not a smart TV it's like ordinary TV. Can you confirm when these apps will be available in LG webstore to install in devices

Let us know

No we cannot tell you when the apps will be available as this is a user-to-user forum and not an official LG board.  So as such we do not have knowledge of what individual vendors are doing in the way of producing  apps for the webOS platform.  If you want an app for a service that is currently unsupported yes let the forum know so other users can gauge if it would be useful to them, but you would need to get in direct contact with the service provider to fully aware that there is a real desire for webOS support.

Hi,

Sadly at this point in time as the apps you wish for are not available from the content providers on LG's webOS platform then it is not the TV for you.  Something running Android may be a better bet for you.

Agree, this is a smart TV. But the competitor   Samsung has many more apps compared to LG. There is no commitment from LG about these apps like Spectrum, Hotstar and many more. This is very as a consumer we are feeling that LG is not a smart TV.

Is it like you only add app purchase apps in  LG app store. Any specific reason for not providing JIO TV app??
