How to access espn+ on lg smart tv

As a sports lover, ESPN+ can be a good choice for you. The Live TV streaming service has thousands of live sports even and original series to watch. I’m a regular viewer of ESPN channels for almost a decade. But recently I brought a new LG OLED C1 Series for my living room. But the problem is ESPN Plus app is not available on LG TV.

Since there are lots of benefits of my new LG TV, it has so many streaming apps to stream content like movies, shows, and all. So I gave up on my cable tv connection which turned out to be a bad choice. Cable tv has its own benefits and you can get all your favorite tv channels in a single TV package.

Anyways, after bringing my new LG tv home, I was searching for the ESPN+ app in the LG Content store to watch some live sports action. But unfortunately, ESPN Plus is not available by default in the app section on LG TV or I have to say that ESPN+ doesn’t support LG Smart TV directly.

That was quite irritating for me. So I started to research online on how to watch ESPN without cable tv on an LG Smart TV and land on some blogs and youtube videos to learn how to Get ESPN plus On Lg tv. Btw downloading apps on LG Smart tv is very easy but I have no idea at that time so I was very frustrated.
