We all value our privacy when it comes to our belongings. Adding an app lock on the LG Smart TV might help prevent strangers from accessing your apps. This might be helpful if you have any information that you want to be hidden.
Once you lock an app on the LG Smart TV, when you access it, you will be required to type in the passcode. We recommend you create a password that you can easily remember. If you forget the passcode, you might have a hard time accessing the apps. Here’s how to go about it.
