How to Update IPTV Smarters Pro on Samsung & LG Smart TVs

Is your IPTV Smarters Pro app acting sluggish on your Smart TV? Learn how to force an update on Samsung Tizen and LG WebOS to get the latest features.

One of the best things about IPTV Smarters Pro is that it has native applications for both Samsung (Tizen) and LG (WebOS) Smart TVs. This means you don't need to buy a Firestick or Android box to enjoy your Premium IPTV Smarters Pro Subscription.

However, Smart TVs are notorious for rarely pushing automatic updates. If your app is crashing, buffering, or failing to load the EPG, you might just be running an outdated version. Here is how to manually force an update on both Samsung and LG TVs.

How to Update on Samsung Smart TVs

Samsung TVs use the Tizen operating system. To update the app:

  • 1Press the Home button on your Samsung remote.
  • 2Navigate to the Apps menu on the bottom ribbon.
  • 3Once in the Apps store, navigate to the top right corner and click the Settings gear icon.
  • 4Turn Auto Update to the ON position.
  • 5If you want to force it immediately, scroll down to IPTV Smarters Pro in the list of your downloaded apps.
  • 6Click on the app. If an update is available, you will see a button that says Update. Click it.
  • How to Update on LG Smart TVs

    LG TVs use WebOS. The process is slightly different:

  • 1Press the Home button on your LG Magic Remote.
  • 2Select the LG Content Store (or simply "Apps" on newer WebOS versions).
  • 3Navigate to My Apps at the top of the screen.
  • 4You will see a list of installed apps. If an update is available for IPTV Smarters Pro, it will typically show an "Update" badge next to the icon.
  • 5Click on the app and select Update.
  • *Pro Tip: Ensure your TV's firmware is also up to date. Go to Settings > General > About This TV > Check for Updates.*

    What if the Update Doesn't Fix the Issue?

    If you have updated the app but are still experiencing playback issues, the problem might be your TV's cache. Smart TVs have very limited RAM compared to a Firestick or Nvidia Shield.

    Try unplugging your television directly from the wall outlet for 60 seconds. This drains the capacitors and completely clears the volatile memory, which often solves lingering app issues. If the problem persists, it may be time to look into our Ultimate Guide to Setting Up IPTV Smarters Pro on a dedicated streaming device instead.
