LG Ad Solutions, a global provider of connected TV (CTV) and cross-screen advertising, today announced findings from “The Big Shift 2025” — the company’s fourth installment of its annual insights series to determine consumer perceptions and behaviors related to CTV viewership.
The connected TV home screen, the report says, “has evolved beyond just a gateway to shows and movies. Viewers are now embracing their TV’s broader capabilities, engaging with built-in content hubs for activities like cloud gaming (46%), on-screen shopping (44%), and more. This shift highlights growing opportunities for brands to reach audiences through richer, more interactive experiences on the largest screen in the home.”
Tony Marlow, LG Ad Solutions CMO, says: “CTV has officially moved beyond passive viewing. Today’s TV home screen is a launchpad for immersive entertainment, interactive experiences, and increasingly for retail experiences. As the biggest screen in the home becomes the center of attention and action, it presents an unparalleled opportunity for advertisers to connect with people across both their entertainment and purchase journeys.”
With an ever-expanding range of content available, CTV viewers are increasingly relying on their TV’s home screen to guide their entertainment choices LG Ad Solutions says. “On average, viewers spend nearly 10 minutes navigating from powering on the TV to selecting content, with one-third of that time spent on the LG Home Screen—making it a critical touchpoint for discovery and engagement.”
