    Hello, I have an issue with the official WebOS app. My wife is blind so we use the TVs voice guide so she can navigate on screen. The app on WebOS on our LG tv doesn’t seem to have anything labeled and the voice guide on the tv will not read anything on screen. Our our other Samsung TV the side loaded all for Tizen seems to work correctly. Samsungs Voice guide will read everything in the app. Any help with this would be appreciated

    The Jellyfin WebOS app is basically a wrapper for the Web UI (what you use when you access Jellyfin from a web browser).
    It could be that LG's implementation just doesn't handle it well as compared to Samsung's own voice reader/navigator.

    I haven't used the Tizen app, but from what I remember reading before, the Jellyfin Tizen app is not a Web UI re-wrap, but an actual app built for Tizen which might be why it works better in this use case for the voice reader.
    Edit: The Tizen app is pretty much the same with it being a wrapper for the Web UI.

    The performance of the screen voice reader depends on the tv manufacturer's native implementation of the feature and Jellyfin has little control over it.
