The fact that you can't remove or disable Samsung TV Plus on this projector makes it so frustrating to use. Each time you turn the projector on, a TV Channel will start playing, without any option to prevent it. Such a frustrating experience...
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Phil,
While your Freestyle 2nd Gen may currently default to Samsung’s TV Plus app, please know you can choose what your Projector does when you turn it on by going to Menu > Settings > All Settings > General & Privacy > Start Screen Option
1) Enabling Start with Smart Hub Home automatically launches Smart Hub when the Projector is turned on. Navigate to this option to enable or disable the feature. 2) If Autorun Last App is set to on, the last used app is automatically run when you turn on the Projector. You can turn this function on or off by pressing the Select button in the current menu.
If we can help with anything else, please call us at 1-800-SAMSUNG, 8AM - 12AM EST, 7 days a week. LiveChat with an agent as well as manuals, software, and warranty info can be found at the ‘Support’ link on our Samsung website.
Worst product I’ve ever purchase. Please don’t waste your money as I did on this crap.
