Though your Samsung smart TV comes pre-loaded with the most popular streaming apps, you may want to add others and do some reorganizing while you're at it.

The short version

  • Smart TVs make it easy to access streaming services as well as self-hosted media servers, such as Plex, without needing to buy an extra device like a streaming stick (though there are other reasons to buy a streaming device when you have a smart TV ).
  • But even if you have a smart TV, you might not be taking full advantage of it.
  • Fortunately, it's easy to add new apps to a Samsung smart TV if the ones you want aren't already included when you first set it up.

What happened

Once an app is finished installing, a button to add it to the home screen should appear. If you've already navigated away and want to pin an app later, you can still find everything you have in the apps menu on the home screen.

Why it matters

Just press and hold on the one you want to pin to the home screen, and the option to add to home will appear.
