LG Channels on your Smart TV
Want to watch all your favourites without a separate subscription? LG’s 100% free streaming service LG Channels has all the variety—no tuner needed.
LG Channels is a free streaming service provided by LG, offering a vast range of TV channels with live and on-demand content.
LG Channels in app
This app is part of the webOS, LG’s own Smart TV operating system, so it’s already there as soon as you turn on your LG TV. Since the content is ready to view on demand, there’s no need to use the TV tuner.
Using the built-in LG Channels app on your LG TV comes with some perks, such as:
Use wi-fi or a cable to link your TV to your internet router and connect using the Settings menu.4
This will open your TV’s Home Screen, which shows you various options and apps.5
To find LG channels on your Smart TV, look for a white app logo that has an orange icon with the letters CH in the middle and upward- and downward-pointing arrows.6
On the screen that appears, select the channel you want to watch. Don’t forget to watch out for LG Channels content banners on your LG home screen too. Just click on them to go directly to the featured content.7
LG Channels brings you a wide variety of free, premium entertainment – starting with our very own flagship channel, LG1, which showcases a curated mix of the best TV and films. Alongside this, viewers can explore hundreds of channels from leading global and local partners, spanning drama, entertainment, news, sport, lifestyle, and more.7
