Apps pop up along bottom of screen when switching TV on

[CJW]

I have an SM9010PLA just over a year old. Since a month or so ago whenever the TV is switched on all the apps pop up along the bottom of the screen as if I've pressed the home button. They stay there for about 30 seconds unless I select TV or point the pointer to the screen and click. I thought it might be a system upgrade problem and I've since checked if there are any further upgrades and there aren't. I reset the TV to factory settings which said it would also delete all the apps I had installed - which it didn't.

Anyone else had this and/or know a solution.

@CJW Try this:

Settings > General > Additional Settings > Home Settings > Home Auto Launch (toggle to off or disable).

Do you know how to get this bar to show while watching TV? The only way I know to access apps is to press the Home button, which then takes me to a whole new page (and turns off live TV).

I have a SM9010PLA and when I press the home button all the apps pop up along the bottom but the TV still shows the live channel that’s on. Afraid I’ve no idea why yours doesn’t do the same so I can’t really help other than to say yours should be doing the same as mine. 
Don’t think LG’s software is the best as I’ve had two or three issues which have only  been sorted by doing a factory reset which is a pain and even now it sometimes loses channels which means doing an auto scan. This was my first and will be my last LG, all my previous Samsungs have been brilliant.
