Cannot get LG webostv to work, no "LG Connect Apps"

Configuration
1

I have two new 2025 LG TVs. I have them set up wired with fixed IPs. I want to enable the ‘webostv’ integration. The first step in that is to enable "LG Connect Apps’ which is meant to be in the Network section of setup on the TV. However there is no such option, only ‘Wired Connection’ and ‘Wi-Fi Connection’. There is no “LG Connect Apps” there nor under either of those sections nor can I find it elsewhere.

When I try to enable the integration, I give it the IP address of the TV and it tells me to wait for a pairing code which never comes (probably because App integration is not enabled).

I have enabled IP Network Control and any other ‘yes put my tv on the network’ settings I can find.

Does the latest WebOS no-longer support the webostv integration?

I have the same problem with 3 LG tvs of different model years all updated to the latest available WebOS available for them. All are on wired connections.

I’ve just bought a LG OLED G5.
It did not have the “LG Connect Apps” option either.
I managed to add it this way:
Settings → Support → IP Control Settings → Enable SDDP

Then I’ve added the integration via the IP and it worked.

Hope this helps you too!

Unfortunately I don’t have that option under ‘Support’ either.
