Setting the initial screen that appears when the TV is turned on

Is it possible to set the power on screen (the screen that first appears when the TV is turned on) to the desired external input or home menu?

The power on screen of LG Smart TVs purchased from 2023 onwards can be set to either [Home] screen or [Recent Input] when turned on.
For TVs purchased before 2023, the power on screen can be set to [Home] by selecting [Home Auto Launch].
This setting applies when you turn on the TV with the remote control.
If you turn on the TV using the power button on the TV itself, you may see a different external input screen.
The setting may not be applied if you turn off [Quick Start +].
Please ensure the [Quick Start +] setting is on.
