Can this app do any damage to my LG TV ? #216

I've only just found out about this prog. I presume I can not brick my LG TV by using this ? Also I only see a US version. Does this matter as I am in the UK ?

If you don't root the TV, then this app can't do any harm, nor affecting warranty.

It's not known if rooting/jailbreaking affects warranty and even you do, it's very less likely bricking your TV, unless you're determined to do so.

For the US locale, the apps is not localized so it only shows US English, but should be fine even you have another locale.

Thanks but I've just tried to sign up for a developer account but the SIGN IN tab does nothing for me ? https://web.archive.org/web/20231005025611/https://webostv.developer.lge.com/develop/getting-started/preparing-lg-account
