To add apps to an LG Smart TV not listed in the LG Content Store, use the LG Content Store app on your TV. Navigate to the 'Apps' section and select 'More Apps'. If the app you're looking for isn't available, consider side-loading by enabling the installation from unknown sources in the TV's settings, though proceed with caution as this can pose security risks. Alternatively, use a streaming device like Roku or Chromecast to access additional apps not directly available on your LG Smart TV.
