Is it possible to install/add different browser in webOS? The default browser that came with TV has some issues (playing videos in Youtube, in full screen mode, just kept refreshing, in other modes plays find, other online streaming seems not working as well). In PC those sites worked just fine, without any problem.

@michaelbr Many posters ask this question. As a smart TV is a very limited and controlled architecture (NOTHING like a PC, as some think it is), you can ONLY download apps from the official LG STORE app on your Tv model for your country.

buy a amazon tv firestick and stick in hdmi socket at the back of tv. Load up DuckDuckGo app web browser and stream any thing that you like.  LG OS will never have a decent web browser.

@Bachstrad Thanks for this tip, will give it a try.

      Browser crashes on BBC news site/website
      By DeeDeee
      My WebOS browser always crashes if I go onto the BBC news website. It is the only site I have this problem with. I've tried the usual solutions, clearing the history/cache/cookies and I don't think it is memory as I have no other problems. Ever so grateful for any suggestions. TIA.

      LG web browser
      By Alex Benet
      Hi everyone, I have a recent problem with my lg smart tv web browser. TV's model is 50UH635V and I've noticed that the browser can't open certain websites showing the message "the browser is no longer supported". Is there any solution to this? Can I install a 3rd party browser to my TV, like mozilla, chrome, something like that?
