I have got both LG apps installed on Homey 2023, but I cannot find a way to :

- submit a code in case an app installed on my LG tv requires a code (to prevent from my kids opening it)
- simulate the joystick from my LG remote control

Is there a workaround to achieve either the first or the second limitation?

FWIK you can use the LG phone app for that, osado.

True, but i want to create a flow which does all that :

- turn on TV
- Open app
- Fill in code
- Use joystick to finally open the tv channel I want

Owww, I did not read it too well…  
I thought you meant to enter a one time pairing code.

Just crossed my mind: The great WebOS Plus app can do that, but you’ll need to install it [using CLI](https://community.homey.app/t/how-to-cli-install-method/198).

A bunch of interesting flow cards, note “_simulate remote control button_”:
