The PBS app is available to download and use on select LG TVs in the United States. While not all LG TVs will be able to offer the PBS app, you can check if your LG TV is supported by reviewing our help article on that here.
If your LG TV is supported, you can download the PBS app by following the instructions below:
- Return to your LG TV's home screen by clicking the home button on your remote.
- On your LG TV's home scree, you'll see an option for APPS. Use your remote to select this option.
- On the Apps screen, use your remote to navigate to and select the magnifying glass icon at the top of the screen. This is the search feature offered by LG to search your TV for available apps.
- After selecting the search icon, a keyboard will appear on your TV screen. Use the keyboard to enter PBS and then click the Search button on the right to continue.
- A row of search results will appear along the top of the screen with the title APPS & GAMES. If the PBS app is available on your LG TV, you should see it listed in this row. Use your remote to select it.
- Your TV should now bring you to the app screen for the PBS app, showing the details for the app and other content. Select the Install option on this screen to begin downloading the app.
- Once the download is complete, the Install option will be replaced by an option to Launch the app. Select Launch to open the app.
Congratulations! The PBS app is now downloaded on your LG TV and can be opened at any time from your LG TV's home menu.
