Removing channels from Samsung TV Plus

Samsung TV Plus offers a wide range of programming and just about anyone should be able to find something interesting. If you want to remove the channels that you don't watch, or you decide you don't want any of these channels at this time, you can remove all of the TV Plus channels.

Note: If you remove all of the channels, the TV Plus app will not play automatically until new channels are added. New channels are added to TV Plus occasionally, so if you don't want to see them, you'll have to repeat this process.

Press Home on your remote, navigate to TV Plus, hover over the app, select Channel List, then select Edit Channels.
Select channels to mark them with a check, and then select Delete to remove the channels from your TV Plus Channel list. Restoring deleted channels is just as easy. While on the Edit Channels page, select the channel you want restored, then select Restore. If you select the box next to All Channels, all channels are selected at once.
