Native WebOS app for DirectTV Stream

I recently purchased a LG TV and to my surprise there was not a DirectTV Steam WebOS app.  Does anyone know if there will be a native DirectTV Stream app for WebOS at some point?

Went through similar experience a year ago.  I returned the LG and bought a Samsung. Now I'm having problems with the DTVS app on Samsung, which I have also posted in this forum.

The only TV manufacturer listed with support for the app is Samsung.  Perhaps other platforms will be added.  My recommendation is to focus on external streaming devices that are easily replaced/upgraded as technology changes and not worry about the smart features in your TV... get a good screen instead.

I like the integrated experience of using the TV and not having to deal with an external device.  Returning the TV isn't an option at this point so I am going to have to switch to another streaming TV service that is supported on a LG TV.

Hi @vincent516, thank you for reaching out.

We understand that's important for you to have an integrated experience to enjoy your services. However, we would like to share with you that there other compatible devices that might help you to stream your DIRECTV STREAM service.

To each his own.  Good luck with that.

If you tried the Dtv Stream box that "dealing with an external device" opinion would change :)
