Glass Home

A calmer home screen for your LG TV

Your six apps, the time, Göteborg weather and this week’s Arsenal, IFK Göteborg, Sweden and golf — with where to watch each one.

Download for LG TV

Live preview — click it, then use the arrow keys and Enter like your remote.

Made for your TV

Built to run on your 2018 LG (webOS 4), with arrow-key and Magic Remote pointer control.

Updates itself

Once installed, the TV loads the newest version from this site each time it opens. No reinstalling.

Press OK to watch

Pick a match or tournament in the calendar and OK opens Viaplay, HBO Max or the right app.

Install on your TV

  1. Step 1

    Turn on Developer Mode on the TV

    Open LG Content Store, install “Developer Mode”, sign in with a free LG developer account and switch Dev Mode on. The TV restarts.

  2. Step 2

    Get webOS Dev Manager on your computer

    Free app for Windows and Mac. Add your TV using the IP address and passphrase shown in the Developer Mode app.

  3. Step 3

    Install Glass Home

    Download the Glass Home file (button at the top) and drop it into Dev Manager. It appears in your TV’s app bar — move it to the first spot.

  4. Step 4

    Open it with one press

    Long-press a number key on the remote while Glass Home is open to make it a quick shortcut.

LG switches Developer Mode off after 50 hours unless it’s extended — Dev Manager can do that for you. LG doesn’t let your own apps start automatically when the TV turns on, so the shortcut key is the quickest way in.
