How on earth do you force this *lovely* device to change what account is logged into a specific channel? Someone was visiting me and added a couple channels (disney, netflix) with their account info to see if I liked them enough to subscribe. Now we absolutely cannot get the *#&!* Roku to forget their log-in info so I can use my own.
I've tried removing the channels multiple times from both website and the device, doing a factory re-set on the device itself, etc.
I really, really don't want to have to delete my entire roku account and create a new one from scratch...and frankly if I need to I'll just buy a firestick so I don't have to deal with this again.
Everything you need to know is right inside the channels themselves. You also could have called your friend and ask them to log out of all devices from within their Netflix account and Disney account.
For Disney Plus, scroll down from the header carousel to the menu of icons. On the left is the sidebar. Go there. Scroll down to Settings. In there is Log Out. Just like it is on Fire TV devices, because that's how Disney designed the app.
do you offer access to Netflix in your listing? If so do you use your own account? Pay for another account? Make them sign in with THEIR account? I have a Netflix account myself and a ROKU I can hook up -- I just today got my first inquiry about Netflix in the unit. I'm wondering how others do it.
I have an additional device account, one for guests. If a guest doesn't have their own account, they can request me to set up access to ours as a guest viewer. Although after 2 years and many bookings, I have had only 2 requests for me to set them up. Most have their own account these days.
We have a guest account for Netflix and Hulu and an old iPhone with nothing else on it signed in for guests to cast to the tv, via google chrome-cast. Old fashioned but does the job at low cost. (We have no tv service.)
Hi Emilia, I'll just be starting to offer Netflix for my guest this coming month and thinking of the same set-up as yours (guest will have access to my account, but with a different user profile). I'd like to ask if you had any instances where your guests have messed with the other profiles on your Netflix account. If yes, what did you do? Or if not, what have you done to prevent this.
@Jose-Feliciano0, just this week I noticed the Grinch was watched on my specific Netflix profile and there were two young children staying in one of my Airbnbs at that time. It doesn't bother me and doesn't happen often. No one has ever messed with my settings or anything like that. I would say it is more frustrating when they log out of my account and into their own. I have to check every time I am turning over the space for a new guest that Netflix is correctly logged into the right account. I would never give my password to a guest so if they get logged out it would require me going over to the apartment to log them back in (luckily, no one has asked me to do that.)
Hi Jose, So I'm a little behind on this thread & I've been looking into all this stuff with Netflix & if you offer up your own account could the guest potentially mess with the other accounts on it. Anyway, their is a way you can lock your other profiles so they would only have access to the one you want them to have..
I have a "guest profile" for Netflix/Hulu/Amazon but it is still my account. The account requires a password to be modified in any way, including ordering movies that are not included in the subscription so there's no way guests could change or charge anything.
The only issue I had once was someone signed in on their own account, then messaged me claiming that someone was watching stuff on their account after they checked out. We didn't have any guests during the time they claimed this was happening and we had logged them out anyways, so I think they had left their account logged in elsewhere.
@Kelly1126 I have the Netflix account that allows for streaming on 4 devices at once. I just leave the account signed in. Same with Amazon: I'm actually not sure how many people can log in at once, but there has never been a conflict, maybe because Amazon Prime is pretty poor in Canada and there isn't much to watch. Some people choose to use their own account, but I do provide mine also so they can use it if they want.
We have Smart TVs and/or Roku's so that guests can access their own accounts. We remind them to sign out when they leave. We've also been using YouTubeTV instead of cable TV in some properties. So far, so good. The savings are great. Good luck with whatever you decide!
Hi, I've got a google nest mini and I've just connected my TV to it. I've been able to turn on netflix through my nest, but when I tell it to play a tv show on netflix, it says "I also need to know which device to use. Try saying that again, and include the device's name." Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this issue? Would appreciate any suggestions!
You could try setting your "Preferred TV" to your TV via the Google Home app. That is supposed to work, though I think this feature is a little buggy. (I'm currently having a different problem, but related to the same feature).
After linking, you can start playing a TV show or movie with voice commands like "Ok Google, watch Orange is the New Black on TV," all of your next control commands (pause, next, etc.) control that particular TV. You don't need to continue to specify the TV after the viewing session begins.
How can I sign up for an Xfinity package with Netflix?
Xfinity packages with Netflix are only available in select markets at this time. To check availability, please visit xfinity.com.
How do I know if my Xfinity package includes Netflix?
If Netflix is included in your X1 package, it will be listed in the \"Bundled Services\" or the \"Regular monthly charges\" section of your bill.
I signed up for an Xfinity package that includes Netflix. How do I activate my Netflix account?
Launch the Netflix app on your X1 TV Box. Then, follow the prompts to either link your existing Netflix account to your Xfinity package or create a new Netflix account to be linked to your Xfinity package.
How do I find the Netflix app on my X1 TV Box?
You can either say \"Netflix\" into the Xfinity Voice Remote or you can go directly to the Netflix app by clicking on the Netflix tile found in the X1 apps menu.
I signed up for an Xfinity package that includes Netflix but never accessed the Netflix app on my X1 TV Box. Can I still create a new Netflix account or transfer an existing one as part of my package?
Yes. However, you must open the Netflix app on your X1 TV Box to activate the Netflix service included in your Xfinity package.
If you have an existing Netflix account and sign up for an Xfinity package with Netflix service, you'll continue to be charged separately for your Netflix account until you complete the activation process by using the Netflix app on your X1 TV Box.

What will happen to my Netflix account if I cancel my Xfinity service or change my Xfinity package?
For more information, see how to disconnect or downgrade Xfinity service with Netflix.
What happens to my Netflix account if I move?
Your Netflix subscription relationship is with Netflix directly, even if you signed up through Xfinity X1. Because of this, a move will not impact your subscription unless you are billed by Comcast, in which case, you will need to update your method of payment for Netflix.
Note: You'll need to sign in to Netflix again once you activate the boxes at your new address. If you move and no longer have Xfinity services, you will no longer be billed by Comcast and must update your payment method for Netflix or risk losing your Netflix Service.
If you have a previous, valid method of payment (credit or debit card, for example) on file with Netflix, Netflix will charge your previous method of payment. Contact Netflix to cancel your Netflix account after changing your service package with Comcast.
I accidentally linked the wrong Netflix account to my Xfinity package. What should I do?
If you accidentally connect the wrong Netflix account to your Xfinity package, please sign out of the Netflix app on X1 and please contact us.
How does Netflix affect internet data usage?
Video in the Netflix app on Xfinity X1 is streamed over the internet. For this reason, usage of the Netflix app on X1 and all other programming and content from the internet on X1, as well as, the internet apps on X1 are subject to Xfinity Internet data usage policies.
To determine what amount of usage you can expect for a given hour of streaming, Netflix provides estimates on its website. Netflix estimates about 1 GB of data per hour for each stream of standard definition video, and up to 3 GB per hour for each stream of HD video.
Will my Netflix user settings carry over to X1 or Flex?
Yes. Existing Netflix customers who use their Netflix login information when logging in through the Netflix app on X1 or Flex will see their current Netflix settings.
Why is Netflix programming displaying in letterbox?
If you signed up for a Netflix standard definition (SD) package, the Netflix content will appear in SD in the letterbox format, even if you are an Xfinity HD customer. In order to get rid of the letterbox view, you must change your Netflix subscription to a package that includes HD.
This may not sound like a serious problem in the grand scheme of national and universal problems, but it remains deeply annoying. Many have been the times that my family wrapped up a Sunday night episode of The Great British Baking Show only to have some wildly inappropriate-for-families preview clip begin to play. ("Daddy, what does 'Don't F*** With Cats' mean?")
