I didn't list fridges because I've seen ads there, but these seem to have gone away in newer models (people don't like ads)

- ceejayoz 5mo agoMy washing machine's app (LG) has ads, recipes, rewards programs, etc. I think the main thing preventing it on the device itself is they haven't thus far needed a large screen to show them on.
- lexicality 5mo agoRecipes? For washing clothes?
- ceejayoz 5mo agoYes. LG has a wide line of appliances, so the app has a recipes section.
- hakfoo 5mo agoWhen we first got our LG TV (a fairly cheap 43" LCD with mediocre brightness and WebOS) you could get an app to be the remote control. It was a convenient option when the remote fell under the couch. They discontinued it for some elaborate "ThinQ" app which was designed to support a huge universe of different devices, and it was no longer something my parents could use. I miss when phones had IR blasters; it was fun that I could control my old NAD 7100 reciever, which predated consumer smartphones by a good decade plus.
