Using 2 Roku sticks in the same house?

Jump to solution

I have 2 TVs. One has a Roku Streaming Stick +  and it's working great ( Netflix, Plex, ...).

If I buy a second Roku Streaming Stick + for my second TV... is there something two know? Ex. : Will the kids will be able to watch a movie on Netflix on the first TV while my wife and I are watching something else on the other TV... or each time that they will use the remote they will stop/change our movie?

Is it better to link the 2 Roku stick to the same account or to set up two different accounts?

Tx a lot!

You can have as many Roku devices as you want and people can watch different channels on each. I own 9 Roku devices.

I have 5 Roku devices all linked to the same account.  I can watch 5 different programs.  I recommend that you link all devices to the same account, then any channel you add to one device is added to the other device.  You may have to login separately on each device the first time you use a channel.  Kids can watch a Netflix movie and you can watch a different Netflix movie or anything you have access to on the other TV.

@renojim  I never gave a specific number. I said "I had 9 Roku devices". Thanks for jumping in at the last moment again.

Hmm... I guess if you want to split hairs you didn't say they could all be linked to the same account.
