Smart TV interfaces from most brands are usually simple and easy to use, designed for users to quickly access all functions using the remote control.

However, there are certain features that may be more hidden or, due to their infrequent use, are difficult to find or execute correctly.

A clear example of this is uninstalling apps. It seems that manufacturers are not interested in making this option easy for us, as keeping apps installed allows them to continue displaying related ads and collect usage data that they can sell to video streaming companies and other services. For this reason, the option to remove apps is often hidden or less intuitive to find in the settings menu. This strategy not only complicates storage management but also limits the user experience by keeping unnecessary apps on the system.

Moreover, this practice reflects a trend in the tech industry towards forced app retention, where commercial interests prevail over user experience and control. Therefore, knowing these tricks and shortcuts to better manage our apps on smart TVs can make a big difference in how we use these platforms in our daily lives.
