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.

!Classic menu with reference app icons

Classic, the default built-in theme, shown in the browser preview. Reference apps are not bundled; TV functions are simulated.

Themes

Choose built-in Classic, Liquid Glass or Ribbon, or install community themes. Manage them in Settings → Themes on your TV.

| Classic menu | Liquid Glass | Ribbon | | --- | --- | --- | | Classic menu browser preview | Liquid Glass browser preview | Ribbon with Black Hole video by Xecutioner — browser preview |

Ribbon wallpaper video: Xecutioner · non-commercial use with attribution.

Ribbon stays inside the single full-screen Home app, with its own wallpaper in both editions. It does not show another app or HDMI behind the cards. See compatibility for the tested scope.

Use the theme cards above the simulated TV to switch themes and compare layouts, then choose Root or No-root to preview either edition. No TV connection or installation is needed. See the theme guide for installation and creating your own theme.

  3. Install, then check Home, Back, normal controls and emergency exit before daily use.

Windows: extract the whole ZIP before opening the app. macOS: choose Apple Silicon or Intel to match your Mac. See desktop instructions or Android requirements for platform details.

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.

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.
