Hardware and software setup

Install apps and register to LG Smart TV. Prerequisite: Internet access

The Smart TV function on the TVs of the Korean company LG appeared almost simultaneously with its introduction by the main competitor, the Korean giant Samsung. On the this moment in terms of its level of development, these two “Koreans” share this niche, and the technology, meanwhile, is becoming more and more popular. We dedicate this post to connecting LG TVs to the Internet via cable or WiFi and setting up such a wonderful feature as Smart TV in them. We will also look at how to take full advantage of this technology.

Internet connection

The first condition for the operation of Smart TV is the presence of the Internet in your home. Moreover, the Internet must be wired, or the method of its connection must provide wifi router. So simple USB modems mobile operators they won’t fit here, so the first thing you need to do is bring the Internet into the house.

There are 2 ways to connect your TV to the Internet to use the technology:

  1. Through a cable - in the event that it is convenient for you to connect the wire to the TV, and you either do not have home network WiFi and there is no desire / ability to configure it, or your TV does not have a built-in wifi adapter and there is no desire / opportunity to buy an external one.
  2. Via WiFi.

Which method to use is up to you, TV works fine in both versions, the difference in setting will be only at the first and last step.

If via cable

In this case, you need to connect the Internet network cable to the LAN connector on the back of the TV. If you have only one computer connected to the Internet in your house, then in order for the Internet to work on it and TV at the same time, you need to buy a special splitter (it is called a switch or hub) and connect the Internet cable to it. Then connect one of its LAN 1 outputs network cable with a computer, and connect the second LAN 2 to the TV.

Go to the menu by pressing the Home button on the remote control.

Select the “Settings” menu item and go to the “Network” section, select the “Network Connection” item in it.

Select the "Set up connection" button, then - List of networks.

On the next screen, to connect the Internet via a cable, go to the “Wired network” item, if via WiFi, select the name of your WiFi from the list wireless network. Next, click "Update" and wait. If a password is set for your WiFi network, you will additionally need to enter it in the window that appears.

After a short wait, you will see a message about the successful connection of the device to the network, click “Finish”. Congratulations! You have just successfully set up your TV for Internet access.

What's next?

LG TVs do not allow full use of the Smart TV function without registration. Therefore, in order to fully use it, for example, install various applications and widgets from Smart World, you need to register on the LG website. The process is simple, but if you are not at all confident in your abilities, it is better to ask someone who understands the technique better to register yourself. To register, follow these steps:

Go to the main menu using the Home button on the remote control. In the upper right corner, select Login.

Most likely, you have not previously been registered on LG Apps, so select the “Registration” item. If you have an account, then enter the data, click Login and proceed to the last step.

Pretending to read Terms of use, and then the privacy policy, and click agree 🙂

We fill in the email fields and click on the "Authentication" button, which will check if you have registered before. If you do not have an email address at all, then look for information on how to create an Email in Yandex or Google, or ask someone to help create a mailbox.

Attention, the e-mail address must be real, as you will receive an email with a link to confirm registration.

We invent and enter a password 2 times, if desired, we agree to receive messages by e-mail and click the "Register" button. Of course, we don’t forget the password, but it’s better to write it down somewhere.

Now you have to take your eyes off the TV and pay attention to your computer, tablet or smartphone. No, of course you can click the “Yes” button and try to follow the next step using the browser built into the TV, but we do not advise you to do this, at least not yet. Takes a lot of your time.

Therefore, we press the “No” button and go to check the email, where in the new letter from LG Apps we follow the link “Complete registration”. You will be redirected to the LG website, where you will receive a message about successful registration.

That's it, you've been tormented, your registration in LG Apps has been completed. Before full customization the TV is only a few steps away.

To install any applications, whether various programs or playing games on LG Smart TV, you need to register with LG service. Without registration, if you enter Smart World or Game World, these services will either not start or will display a “no access” message.

To register on the LG lgappstv.com website, you can use a computer, or do it from the TV itself. Then log in with registration data on the smart TV service.

When registering from a TV in the smart TV menu, there will be an “enter” icon in the form of a person’s outline, to register it, and press.



Sign in to your Smart TV profile on your LG TV

By clicking the “registration” button, you will be prompted to enter an email address and password to enter the service (not from mail, but come up with a new one specifically for smart TV). The mail must be real, registration confirmation will be sent to this mail. Through the computer, enter the mail, and confirm the registration.



Entering mail and password when registering on the TV

After that, you can enter smart TV services with your entered data. If the login went through correctly, then a green mark should appear next to the profile sign.

You can also register on the LG Smart World website itself.



Registration form on the LG Smart World website

Now, by logging into your LG Smart TV account from the TV using the data entered earlier, you can install available applications that still depend on the country where the user is located. These apps and games may be paid or free. You need to install them after entering the sections Smart World, 3D World or Game World. As written on the LG website, install paid apps possible only after registration on their website, not from TV. Only there you can enter payment data to make a purchase.

To uninstall any game or program, you need to enter the list installed applications. This menu item can be at the top in the form of a pencil. When you choose desired application, then a short menu will appear next to it, where the “delete” item will be.

When I first went to Smart TV on an LG TV, I didn’t immediately understand how to install it there additional programs and games. Yes, you can guess that programs need to be installed in the application, and games in game world. But when I went into these applications, they didn’t even seem to start, or they wrote something like “no access”, I don’t even remember.

The fact is, it's not all that simple. First you need to create account LG (if you don't have it), log in on the TV with your username and password, and only then install the necessary programs.

As for the quantity and quality of programs and games, everything is very poor there (this is my opinion). I found only a few necessary programs for myself, and almost all games require a proprietary Magic Remote. Of course the list available programs and games are replenished all the time.

Let's start with what your TV should support. Smart function TV and must be connected to the Internet in one of two ways: either , or .

This article is based on the LG 32LN575U TV as an example.

Create an account on LG TV

We need to register. This can be done as on the LG website (and then just log in under your data on the TV), and directly from the TV itself.

We go to Smart TV and select the profile icon (screenshot below).

We press the button registration.

Read the user agreement and click I agree (there seems to be necessary to agree twice).

Enter your email address only indicate a valid address to which you have access. It will need to be confirmed. And enter the password twice. If you didn’t manage to specify the password the first time, then it’s okay, I also . Only when he indicated letters and numbers, then the system accepted the password.

Click registration.

If everything is fine, the TV will inform you that you need to confirm the registration and offer to open a web browser so that you can enter the mail. But it’s better to refuse, sit down at the computer, go to the post office and follow the link in the letter from LG Complete registration.

On the site you will see a message that the account is confirmed and a suggestion to provide additional data for purchasing applications. (If you are going to buy programs, I recommend that you immediately resolve this issue).

Now we return to the TV, if you didn’t touch anything there, then the email address will already be indicated, it remains only to enter the password (which you indicated during registration) and log in to your account, which we do.

This message will appear (screenshot below), you can choose Not.

That's it, a green icon should appear next to the profile icon.

Install apps and games on LG Smart TV

Attention! The list of applications depends on the region that is set in the TV settings on the tab Settings, in point The oddity of using Smart TV.

As I wrote above, you can install new games and programs in already installed programs LG Smart World and Game World.

You can find these programs by going to the mode Smart TV and where the list of programs is below, you need to press the button More…

If you want to install programs, then run the application.

Choose desired program. On the left, you can sort them, for example, select only free ones.

A message appears with the requirements that are required to work this application. Click OK.

The download and installation status of the program will appear at the top. After installation, the program can be found in the general list in Smart TV, or by pressing the button MY APPS on the remote control.

Games are installed in the same way. Only in the program game world. Although, LG Smart World also has games.

How to remove a program or game from a TV?

Everything is very simple. Go to Smart TV and go to full list applications. At the top there is a button in the form of a pencil, click on it.

Then select the desired application and a menu will appear next to it, click Delete.

Everything, program, or game will be completely removed.

That's all, I'm waiting for your comments. Best wishes!
