Publish app in LG Store and Samsung Store

Can I publish app for webOS and netcast in one Store once or I need to publish separately for webOS and netcast? And how can I publish app for Samsung smartTV and Tizen once?

Solution

  • WebOS, NetCast, Samsung SmartTV and Tizen applications all use different SDK. In seller portals you create app and upload different binaries for different platforms, and they exist as single app.

    LG seller portal (NetCast, WebOS):

    http://seller.lgappstv.com/

    Samsung seller portal (Samsung SmartTV, Tizen):

    http://seller.samsungapps.com/

    There is backward compatibility between platforms: on Samsung you can publish SmartTV app and it will work on 2015 Tizen. On LG you can publish NetCast app and it will work on WebOS 2014-2017.

    However you will need to make Tizen/WebOS versions if you want to run your app on 2016 devices.
