I don't use the apps on my smart TV because I have a separate streaming device and I don't trust that the smart TV apps will be updated properly.
Same. I refused to connect it to the internet.
Just make sure you check the release notes for firmware updates for the TV, and install them if they fix any issues you're encountering. Obviously it can't auto update without an internet connection, so it'll never tell you if there's an update itself.
