LG tv apps fail to update

Jaykay78 — Sun, 05 Apr 2026 15:30:15 GMT

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help please. I've previously had this issue but it seemed to sort itself out. Now I'm back to square one.
Apps on my lg smart tv will not update via sky broadband. I have tried everthimg on my side. Rebooting, resetting and even factory resets. My understanding is it's some conflict with sky firewall that won't allow apps apps to install on my tv's.
it can be very frustrating. So, if anyone can help I'd appreciate it.

Have you tried either lowering your broadband shield settings or turning it off completely, you can do this via the MySky app or online here:

Thanks for your reply. For some reason I can't access it. I tried your link there also but I keep getting an error message. I suspect that may be the problem.
