Overview
- Owners report a Copilot tile appearing after a recent webOS update on select models, with Engadget confirming it on some 2022 and 2023 sets but not others.
- LG’s support materials state certain preinstalled or system apps cannot be deleted, so users can only move or hide the Copilot tile.
- As of December 17, LG has not announced a rollback or an uninstall option, leaving mitigation to hiding the tile or keeping the TV offline.
- On affected TVs, Copilot currently launches the web-based interface rather than a fully native television app.
- Coverage also highlights privacy concerns tied to LG’s Live Plus content-recognition setting, reported by at least one user as enabled by default.
