Oct. 26, 2020 /PRNewswire/
-- Shopping from home just became even more convenient for LG
TV owners just in time for the holidays. LG Electronics
USA announced today the launch of
the Shop Time app exclusively on LG Smart TVs. Shop Time lets you
use your TV to make purchases directly from popular multiplatform

channels. The app is available now via free download on all LG
Smart TVs (2016-2020), including the critically acclaimed LG
OLED TV lineup, reaching millions of households across the U.S.

shopping channels and use your LG Magic Remote to navigate from
your TV to complete purchases with retailer partners. Shop

ready. App users will also receive curated recommendations about
other products you may be interested in.
