Understanding connections

What a connection is, and how to choose the right number for your household.

Updated

A connection is one active stream. Your plan's connection count is the maximum number of screens that can play at the same time.

Devices vs. connections

You can install your login on several devices. Only the number of streams playing at once is limited. If you exceed it, the newest stream may fail to start until another stops.

Choosing a plan

Count the screens likely to be watching at the same moment, not the total number of devices in your home.

  • 1 connection: one viewer at a time
  • 2 connections: a couple watching in different rooms
  • 3–4 connections: larger households
