Method 1: Exit Samsung TV Plus from the Home Screen
The easiest way to exit Samsung TV Plus is by returning to the home screen. Press the home button on your remote to go back to the Smart Hub menu. From there, you can select app or turn off the TV if you’re done watching. This method works well if you don’t plan on opening Samsung TV Plus again soon.
Method 2: Uninstall Samsung TV Plus
If you want to uninstall Samsung TV Plus entirely, you can do so by following these steps:
1. Press the Home button on your remote to open the Smart Hub menu.
2. Navigate to the Samsung TV Plus app using the arrow keys and highlight it.
3. Press and hold the Select button on your remote until a pop-up menu appears.
4. Select “Delete” from the options.
5. Confirm you want to delete the app by selecting “Yes.”
Note that this will permanently remove the Samsung TV Plus app from your TV. If you change your mind later, you will need to re-download and reinstall the app from the app store.
Method 3: Hide Samsung TV Plus via Channel List
Another way to exit Samsung TV Plus is by hiding it in the channel list. Follow these steps to do so:
1. Press the Home button on your remote to go to the Smart Hub menu.
2. Select “Live TV” from the options.
3. Scroll down to the Samsung TV Plus channel and highlight it.
4. Press and hold the Select button on your remote until a pop-up menu appears.
5. Select “Remove channel” from the options.
6. Confirm you want to remove the channel by selecting “Yes.”
This method only removes Samsung TV Plus from appearing on the channel list. The app is still installed on your Smart TV and may appear as a suggested app when you use the TV again.
Method 4: Restrict Samsung TV Plus via Parental Controls
If you have parental controls enabled on your Samsung Smart TV, you can restrict access to the Samsung TV Plus app. Here’s how:
1. Press the Home button on your remote to go to the Smart Hub menu.
2. Select “Settings” or the gear icon at the bottom left corner of your Smart TV.
3. Scroll down to “Broadcasting” and select “Expert Settings.”
4. Navigate to “Parental Controls” and select it.
5. Enter your four-digit PIN if prompted.
6. Set the “Samsung TV Plus” option to “Block.”
This method restricts access to Samsung TV Plus on your Smart TV. However, if you want to access it again in the future, you will need to turn off parental controls or unblock Samsung TV Plus.
