Multi View is the feature on your LG Smart TV that helps you to split your screen and allows you to access two applications simultaneously. You can split the display and enjoy two different TV programs, sports, etc., or one program along with another HDMI input.

With the Multi View feature on your LG Smart TV, you can view two screens at a time. You can choose two different apps or two different inputs and access them on the TV screen.

1. Click on the Settings icon from your LG TV home screen.

2. Alternatively, you can also press the Settings button that is available on the LG TV remote.
