Fast-Forward on your LG TV

LG smart TVs run webOS, LG's own system, and not Android. That is why we use IBO Player Pro here: it installs straight from the LG app store and our team activates it for you.

Does IBO Player Pro work on your LG?

Press HOME, open the app store (Apps or LG Content Store) and search for IBO Player Pro. Then pick what you see below.

Not found at first? Update the TV via Settings, All settings, Support, Software Update and search again. Newer apps sometimes only appear after an update.

Overview

LG TVs run webOS instead of Android TV, so Fastmate V2 cannot be installed on an LG. IBO Player Pro is the app we support on LG.

Frequently asked questions

Short answers to what LG owners ask us most.

Can I use Fastmate V2 on my LG?
No. LG TVs run webOS, not Android, so Fastmate V2 cannot be installed. Use IBO Player Pro, or one of our Android boxes via HDMI if you want Fastmate V2.
Which LG TVs work with IBO Player Pro?
Most LG smart TVs from recent years. If you can find the app in the LG app store after a software update, your TV is supported.
Do I pay for IBO Player Pro separately?
Yes. The app needs a licence, which you order via our IBO Player Pro page. Your channels come from your Fast-Forward subscription.
When is a separate box the better choice?
When IBO Player Pro is not available on your LG, when the TV feels slow, or when you want Fastmate V2 with recordings and multiview. A box gives you the full experience, whatever TV you have.
Can I test it before I buy?
Yes. IBO Player Pro can be used free for 6 days after you install it, so you can try the app before you order a licence. For the channels you can request a free 24-hour trial, no payment needed.
