LG has brought a number of Apple apps and features to its webOS Hub smart TV ecosystem. The new apps and features will be available on webOS smart TVs in more than 100 countries and regions worldwide.
webOS-powered smart TV owners will be able to access the Apple TV app and Apple Music, as well as connect to AirPlay and HomeKit devices through their televisions without attaching an Apple TV set-top box or any other hardware.
From LG’s press release announcing the update:
With the Apple TV app, Apple Music, AirPlay and HomeKit all coming to the webOS Hub ecosystem, LG is constantly refining and expanding its webOS smart TV platform while enhancing its accessibility so that more consumers can benefit from the most convenient user experience.
By offering a greater range of customization options to smart TV manufacturers and giving more convenience and choice of content to customers, 10 times as many brands are now available on webOS Hub than in early 2021.
The new apps and features are available for more than 200 TV brands worldwide running webOS, such as Seiki, Eko, Stream System, Konka, Aiwa, and Hyundai. Only 4K UHD and OLED models running webOS Hub 2.0 will receive AirPlay and HomeKit compatibility.
