A closer look at the TV app
Every screen here is a real screenshot from the LG app, captured on a TV. Open movies and public-domain classics stand in for your service's catalogue.
A home screen that starts with the picture
Featured titles fill the screen, with rows of new movies and series beneath. Not interested hides a title from your rows; in Movies and Series, View All opens any category as a full grid.

04Designed for every screen
Each screen gets its own interface
A TV is used from the sofa with a remote, a phone with one thumb, a computer with a pointer and a keyboard. AstaliaPlayer is designed for each of them, rather than stretched to fit.
Try the D-pad
TV · LG
Made for the remote
Every TV screen is laid out for the D-pad: a clear focus ring, predictable movement and text you can read from across the room.
Illustration of the LG app
Phones · Tablets
Made for touch
On phones and tablets the interface is being designed for fingers: bigger targets, rows you swipe, and layouts for portrait and landscape.
Design concept
Windows · macOS
Made for the desk
On Windows and macOS it is planned around the pointer and the keyboard, with room to show more at once.
