Choose the main family screen

Pick the television or device the household uses most, then configure the compatible player there first. A clear primary screen makes support and daily use easier.

Explore Lounge plans are designed around one active connection, so set clear expectations at home about which device is in use.

  • Choose one primary screen
  • Use a compatible player
  • Keep credentials private
  • Use favorites and the guide
  • Maintain device updates

Keep the setup safer and easier

Use a device lock or profile controls where your device offers them. Do not share player access details in family group chats, public notes, or social media screenshots.

Keep only the apps your household actually uses. Less clutter helps the main device stay easier to update and navigate.

Plan the home network

Put the primary TV on the strongest available home connection. Ethernet can help for a fixed screen; strong Wi-Fi can be enough when router placement is good.

If the network feels busy, pause large downloads before a family movie night or live event.
