Can accounts share devices?

Jump to solution

Health issues have me living with my sister. We each have our own Roku accounts and she has several cameras and a doorbell cam that I also want to access, but I would prefer to do so with my own account, rather than using hers. I have a Roku TV that is on my account, and I installed the Roku Smart Home app on my phone, but I don't know which account too register it to. Everything is on the same wifi. Can I access those from my own account?

Hi @ClayStation,

Welcome to the Roku Community!

We understand that you want to access the Smart home devices of your sister using your Roku account. We would be more than willing to provide you with further details about this.

Please note that each Roku device can be linked to only one Roku account at a time. You will need to choose which account to use: either your own or your sister's.

Since your sister's Roku Smart Home devices are already connected to her Roku account, we recommend that you sign in to the Roku Smart Home app on your phone using her account. If you prefer to add your own account, you will need to set up the Roku Smart Home devices again so you can link them to your account.

We hope you find this information helpful. Please let us know if there's anything else you would like to address.

Cheers,
Riamie
