YouTube videos playing in 720p on LG smart TV.

[PinheadLarry96]

I recently purchased an LG 60UH6150 and YouTube videos will only go up to 720p while using the built in app. I have looked through settings but there was nothing there concerning video resolution. I've attached a picture of the video info for reference.

No, it's WebOS 3.0.

I know that on my Android phone YouTube application is set to 720p max and i can't change it. Maybe it's same for you too

On my Android phone (Moto X pure edition), YouTube goes up to 1440p which is the phone's display resolution. So if you have a phone with a 720p screen that would be normal behavior.

I couldn't check the video resolution at the link you provided but I could get 4k video on the YouTube desktop site.

Try going into the settings for the youtube app and clearing the cookies, my brother in-law had the same problem with his LG.
