Clean Your TV — for LG webOS Clean Your TV — for LG webOS

Clean Your TV

A personal home screen for LG webOS: your apps, your order, and a configurable dock, without sponsored rows in this launcher. It runs on the TV; your computer can be switched off after setup. It does not remove advertisements from other LG screens or obtain root access.

Choose your edition

Your TV setup Edition
LG Developer Mode, without root No-root — Home and the on-TV Home Helper. Keep Developer Mode active.
Existing root access and trusted root SSH Root — native Home routing and independent recovery. Do not enable Developer Mode over root.

Both use the same launcher. Compatibility depends on the model, firmware and remote: check requirements and known limits first.

Everyday use

  • Home opens your launcher while Home control is enabled.
  • Hold OK on a tile to move or hide it; + / Add app adds an installed app to the grid.
  • Press Home three times within two seconds to stop Home control and return to LG Home. This does not erase settings.
  • After an emergency exit, resume explicitly through Home Helper (No-root) or the Root activation control. Opening Home alone does not clear the stop.

Remote controls · Arrange apps · Update or remove

Before you rely on it

  • Test results are specific to devices and versions. Read compatibility; a successful install alone does not prove daily reliability.
  • The original 1.3.0 Root updater cannot install 1.4.0 through OTA. Keep recovery records and read the update limitations before attempting that transition.
  • No-root needs an active Developer Mode session. Automatic renewal is optional Beta; continue monitoring LG's official timer.
  • The on-TV Homebrew Installer is unreleased. Use the published computer/Android installer; candidate details are for coordinated testing.
