LG ThinQ app

LG ThinQ is a central smart home platform and mobile application developed by LG Electronics to manage and control a wide ecosystem of artificial intelligence-enabled appliances and devices. Originally introduced as 'SmartThinQ' in 2011 at CES and formally rebranded as 'ThinQ' in 2017, the application serves as the core interface for LG's 'Smart Life Solutions' strategy.

As of 2026, the brand remains under the ultimate ownership of LG Electronics, which is part of the larger South Korean conglomerate LG Corp. The app was developed in South Korea, where LG’s primary research and development centers for software and AI are located. The platform has significantly evolved through strategic acquisitions, such as the 2024 purchase of Athom, to broaden its connectivity with third-party IoT devices and strengthen its position in the global smart home market.
