What is PiP or Multi View?

People will binge Netflix shows while working, or reading.

In my case, I have a 2023 LG CS.

To initiate this mode all I have to do is press the options cog button on the magic remote.

Then from the webOS side bar, select “Multi-View.”

From here it’s as simple as picking the sources (e.g.

an HDMI source and a cast of your phone screen).

Then enjoy watching multiple things at once.

Now you’re free to do both.

Modern PiP tech is both easy to use, and incredibly flexible.

Who knows, it might be your favorite new way of using your TV.
