Netflix has become a popular streaming platform among households, and Sky customers can now access it via their TV subscription. However, you may want to watch your favorite shows on other devices like your phone, tablet, or computer. Good news, it’s possible to activate your Netflix account on other devices, and in this blog post, we’ll explain how.
There are two ways to activate devices on Netflix. The first method is through email, which you use personally, and the other one is through a code if you share it with somebody, a friend or family member. In this post, we’ll focus on the code method because activating via email is straightforward.
Using the code method, you can activate your Netflix account on your TV, other streaming boxes, tablet, or computer. In this example, we’ll use Firestick, but the method is the same for other devices. You’ll need one of the following devices to activate a TV or streaming box: phone, tablet, or computer.
Using a code method is the easiest way to activate your account on a TV or streaming box. Here’s how it works:
1. Visit the website netflix.com and sign in.
2. Click on the URL again and type in the sign-in code.
3. To find the sign-in code, go to your TV, open Netflix, go to sign-in at the bottom, and sign in from the web.
4. Once you have the code, go back to your phone, tablet, or computer and type it in.
5. Choose your profile or add another one and start streaming.
Unfortunately, there is currently no option to activate mobile devices and computers using the sign-in code. You have to activate via email, which is not convenient if you want to share it with a friend, and you can’t activate it remotely either. The main idea of the sign-in code is to keep users away from typing long emails and passwords using a remote, which is more suitable for computer and mobile devices.
In conclusion, activating your Netflix account on other devices is possible, and using the code method makes it easier for streaming boxes and TVs. However, for mobile devices and computers, you have to activate via email, which is less convenient. We hope this post has been helpful, and you can now enjoy watching your favorite shows on any device.
