Netflix

Just looking at the Netflix website and thinking of joining. It says that you can watch on a tablet.

My children each have an iPad. If they want to be able to watch Netflix on their iPad:-

1. Do I have to sign up for three different accounts?
2. Can they only watch on Netflix when they have access to the internet?

  • 1. No just one account (premium) allows 4 people to watch at once
    2. yes
  • Thank you. I know I am way behind the times, but never knew you could do this.

    We are going to Greece on Thursday and the villa has wifi. If I have Netflix, they will be able to watch things on their iPads (they like watching YouTube videos, but figured if I had Netflix, they could watch programmes).

  • Netflix may not be the best idea for Greece

    You can get round it using VPN's etc but then it gets complicated

    Not difficult to set up a VPN, I do it at home to get US content.

    There are 3 packages available.


    1 screen £5.99 per month
    2 screens £7.49 per month
    4 screens £8.99 per month


    You can have the app on as many gadgets/TVs as you like but you can only watch at the same time on the number of screens specified.


    I have the 2 screen package. I didn't really want it but DD did for Uni as they don't have a TV and she loves Pretty Little Liars (Netflix only). It does mean we can watch here at home on TV and she can watch a 100 miles away at Uni.

    How do you do this? If I do it as a current Netflix customer will I automatically be able to switch to US content?

    Nah, not going to bother for when we are away. They should be in the swimming pool anyway, either that or watching my bro get married.

    Might set it up when I get home though and they can watch through their iPads. That will just come off my hone broadband right?

    Yes that's correct, would just be using your own internet

    I use Zenmate on my computer and the Hola app on my phone.
