Multi-Device IPTV Plans Explained: 1 vs 2 vs 3 Screens

Device count is the other half of the pricing equation alongside subscription length. Here's how to pick the right tier for your household.
1-device plans
Right for a single viewer or a household where TV-watching is rarely simultaneous. This is the cheapest entry point — see current pricing on the pricing page.
2-device plans
Fits most couples or two-person households where each person might want a different channel at the same time — the most common upgrade reason we hear from single-device subscribers.
3-device plans
Built for families or shared households with three or more regular viewers who might all want something different simultaneously — kids' programming in one room, sports in another, for example.
Remember: this is about simultaneous streams, not installs
You can install the app on unlimited physical devices regardless of tier — the number refers only to how many can stream at the same exact moment. See how device limits actually work for the full explanation.
Can you upgrade later?
Yes — if you start on a 1-device plan and find you need more simultaneous streams, upgrading is straightforward. Message support to adjust your plan.
Choosing based on real usage
Think about a typical Sunday evening in your household rather than a worst-case scenario — that's usually the clearest signal for which tier actually fits.
