Any account on the streaming service can have up to five profiles, allowing users to share the platform with friends or family. However, this can prove to be a challenge when several people want to watch simultaneously.

Netflix outlines a certain number of screens can be watched simultaneously. This breaks down to one user equaling one screen, meaning someone can watch on an iPad while another can watch on a TV, and so on.

Note that Netflix's Basic plan is no longer available. If you are already subscribed to this option, you can continue to use it until you cancel or switch plans. With Basic, you are limited to watching Netflix on one device at a time.

As noted in the pricing breakdown, the Standard plan limits you to downloading Netflix content on two devices at once. With a Premium plan, you can download Netflix shows and movies on up to six devices at once. If you have the Standard with ads plan, you can't download at all.

While you can be signed into Netflix on multiple devices, you can only actively watch a stream on the number of screens included in your plan. This means that if you have the two-screen plan, you can still have three people signed into your account on various devices, as long as they aren't all watching at the same time.

The message should show you which devices are streaming Netflix with your account, and what they're watching. Ask these people to stop (via texting them or whatever is easiest) and you'll be clear to stream on your own once they stop. If you think someone is using your Netflix account without your knowledge, we've shown how to find out who is using your Netflix account if it's not immediately apparent.

Separate from the number of screens that you can watch Netflix on at a time, you can also create multiple profiles on your Netflix account. This allows each person that uses the account to have their own personalized recommendations, list of titles they want to watch, subtitle appearances, and similar.

Every Netflix account can have up to five profiles. This doesn't mean that you can watch on each of those profiles at the same time, though. Profiles are a handy way to keep each user's preferences distinct, but the amount of people that can watch Netflix at the same time is still bound by your Netflix plan's screen limit.

It was once common practice to share your Netflix password with other people, allowing everyone to save some money on the service. However, in 2023, Netflix started cracking down on password sharing. Now, the company has restrictions on people outside of your home using your account, so sharing your password with friends or faraway family isn't really an option. Your account is only intended for devices in your home to access the service.

Instead, Netflix now allows you to add an extra member for an additional fee. On the Standard and Premium plans, you can pay $7.99/month per person to add one extra person (Standard) or up to two extra people (Premium). While extra members get their own login information, the account owner pays for their cost. Extra members can only have one Netflix profile, and are limited to watching and downloading on one device at a time.

Consider whether you should share your Netflix account in this way carefully. While it might be cheaper to add a friend to your account, there are potential drawbacks compared to them signing up on their own.

Now you know how many devices can watch Netflix at the same time. In addition to watching on more screens at a time, a higher-tier account provides higher-resolution streaming. Consider upgrading if you have many people in your home who want to watch Netflix at once.

A January 31 story on The Streamable suggested that Netflix users watching from multiple locations would have to ensure that any device used to stream titles from a location other than the primary household would have to log in from the primary household and watch something there at least once every 31 days. 9to5mac quoted similar wording from the FAQ page, including the 31-day stipulation.

As of now, the FAQ page does not mention anything about a 31-day window in which users must log their devices into the primary home network, so the company may have walked back that measure in the short time since announcing it.

Members on a Standard or Premium plan can purchase additional member slots for people outside their household. Standard plan users can add one extra member while Premium users can add two extra members to their plans.

Those additional members get full access to the subscription tier of the primary account holder but get their own unique account and password. Their account is simply paid for directly through the primary account holder.

You might be using a password for your Netflix account that you also use for another service. While that may not be a great practice for security reasons, you might still want to keep your password private while sharing your Netflix account with a family number. You can do so by using a password manager.

Most password managers have a password-sharing feature that lets you share your password in a discreet way with your contacts. As long as the person you want to share your password with also has the same password manager installed, the software will take care of automatically logging in without showing your actual password to another party.

Roku is our favorite streaming system, with the most streaming app options, the simplest streaming platform interface and the best search. It also has a content-agnostic platform that doesn't push any one media streaming service provider, like Amazon Prime Video or Apple, over another. The Express 4K Plus streaming media player is one of the cheapest streaming TV options with 4K HDR. (Even if your current TV doesn't support those formats, your next one probably will.) Thanks to the AirPlay update, this Roku device is one of the least expensive ways to connect your iPhone or other Apple device to your TV. It is cheaper than the company's Streaming Stick 4K Plus and other 4K HDR streaming devices, and it's our top pick for best streaming device overall.

The Roku Streaming Stick 4K features the same simple interface, large app selection and impressive search function found on all Roku devices, but also offers Dolby Vision support. Along with a stick-like design, Dolby Vision HDR is the main difference between the Streaming Stick 4K and the Express 4K Plus, and is ostensibly why the Streaming Stick 4K is more expensive than its sibling. While we think the Streaming Stick 4K is a great device, we're just not sold on the Dolby Vision upgrade -- mostly because we generally don't think that it provides a major image quality upgrade over standard HDR. But if Dolby Vision is important to you, this device will not disappoint.

The Chromecast with Google TV 4K isn't quite as good as the Roku Express 4K Plus, but it comes closer than any other device on the market. Chromecast outdoes Roku by adding Dolby Vision compatibility, but its biggest smart device strength is Google Assistant voice search, which works well for finding stuff to watch. We also like the impressive integration with other Google services such as Google Photos and YouTube TV. The interface is more evolved-looking than Roku, but ultimately we prefer Roku's simpler approach, no-nonsense search results and lower price. That said, the new Chromecast is a better smart streaming device choice for those already living in Google's world.
