1

Open Smart Hub

Press the Home button on your Samsung remote to open Smart Hub. This is the central hub for all your apps and content.
2

Find and launch the streaming app

Use the directional pad to navigate to the streaming app you want to sign in to (e.g. Netflix). If it isn’t already installed, open the Apps section and download it first.
3

Select Sign In

Launch the app and select Sign In from the welcome screen. You may be prompted to choose a sign-in method — select Sign in with a web browser or Use activation code if multiple options appear.
4

Note the URL and code shown

The TV will display an activation URL (for example, netflix.com/tv2) and a short alphanumeric code. Keep this screen visible — the code is time-sensitive.
5

Visit the URL on your phone or computer

On your smartphone, tablet, or computer, open a browser and navigate to the URL shown on the TV. Sign in to your streaming account if prompted.
6

Enter the code

Type the code displayed on your Samsung TV into the field on your phone or computer and confirm.

TV refreshes and signs you in

Your Samsung TV will detect the completed activation and automatically refresh the app, signing you in. You’re now ready to start streaming.

Tips for Smart TVs

If the streaming app doesn’t show an activation code option when you first open it, look for alternative sign-in labels such as “Sign in on a web browser”, “Use another device to sign in”, or “Sign in with an activation code”. Selecting one of these will start the code-based activation flow. Additionally, make sure your streaming app is fully up to date — manufacturers and streaming services frequently release updates that improve the sign-in experience. You can check for app updates in your TV’s app store or settings menu.
