The number of devices that your household can stream on at once depends on your subscription plan:

Basic with Ads | 2 |
Standard | 2 |
Premium | 4 |
Watching sports is limited to 2 devices at once
Note Extra member accounts are limited to 1 stream and aren't included in the number of streams the account holder has. For more info, go to Extra Member Add-On.
