LG TV owners baffled by a Microsoft Copilot app that can't be removed

PCWorld reports that LG TV owners discovered a Microsoft Copilot app on their smart TVs after a webOS update that cannot be uninstalled. The app stems from LG's partnership with Microsoft for AI TV features, currently functioning as a web shortcut for AI search and recommendations. While users can hide Copilot from their home screen, the inability to completely remove the pre-installed app has frustrated many owners. LG TV owners are expressing confusion and annoyance online after Microsoft Copilot suddenly appeared on their smart TVs, with no option to uninstall the app, Tom's Hardware reports. Copilot was reportedly added to some LG models in conjunction with a recent webOS update and subsequently appears pinned to the home screen.
