DirecTV app on LG Smart TVs
December 8, 2025
DirecTV and LG Electronics have announced the launch of the DirecTV app on LG Smart TVs in the US (on models from 2021 and newer, running on webOS 6.0 or higher). The DirecTV app brings choice and control to LG customers, offering DirecTV’s full suite of entertainment options, including Genre Packs, FAST channels and all-in Signature Packages – plus on-demand content and a personalised viewing experience directly through the TV.
“We’re committed to making DirecTV available on the devices consumers already use, and connected LG Smart TVs are an important part of that vision,” said Vikash Sharma, Head of Product at DirecTV. “Making DirecTV available as a native app on LG TVs gives customers more choice and flexibility in how they enjoy our full lineup—across MyFree DirecTV, Genre and Signature Packs, and TV Everywhere for satellite—through a more customised and personalised experience.”
“We’re excited to deepen our alliance with DirecTV and bring another great service to LG’s webOS Smart TVs,” added Matthew Durgin, VP of LG content and services at LG Electronics. “With the addition of DirecTV’s acclaimed live streaming TV experience, we’re enhancing our LG Smart TV experience and furthering our commitment to delivering exceptional value to our customers without the need for a set-top box.”
