Step 3: Search for YouTube
- Once you're in the LG Content Store, use the arrow buttons on your remote to navigate to the search bar.
- Using the on-screen keyboard, type "YouTube" and press the OK button to begin the search.
Step 4: Install YouTube
- From the search results, locate the official YouTube app and highlight it.
- Press the OK button and you will be directed to the YouTube app's main page.
- On the YouTube app page, click on the "Install" button to begin the installation process.
- Wait for the app to download and install on your LG Smart TV. The installation progress will be displayed on the screen.
Step 5: Access YouTube and sign in (optional)
