Abstract: The present invention relates to a home appliance, a home appliance upgrade method and a home appliance upgrade system. The home appliance upgrade system according to the present invention allows a home appliance to be software-upgraded directly in the appliance itself without linking with an application (app) of a user terminal. To this end, the home appliance upgrade system allows the home appliance to download and store new upgrade software from a management server without user intervention, output an upgrade notification message on the screen thereof when power is turned on or a specific function starts, and record, in a control unit of the appliance, the software selected by a user without being controlled by a smart phone app, so that an upgrade thereof can be executed in the appliance device itself. According to the present invention, the home appliance can be upgraded to new software in the appliance itself without using a smart phone, and thus cumbersome operations in which a user goes back and forth between a home appliance and a smart phone are eliminated.
