QR sign-in for TVs
A code valid for 120 seconds, approved from a phone that’s already signed in. The sign-in is delivered to the TV itself, never to the phone that scanned — so a photo of the screen gets nobody in.
Your catalogue, your paywall and your brand on the TV and the phone — run from the same Studio as your website, and signed in with a phone camera instead of a remote.
Your viewers watch from the sofa, but your platform lives in a browser tab — and the quote for a Roku channel, an Apple TV app and two phone apps arrives with a team attached.
Every rebrand, every renamed section and every new season means another build and another wait in app-store review.
And four minutes before kick-off, the viewer holding a remote is still typing a password one letter at a time.
The apps run from the same Studio your team already uses. There is no second catalogue to keep in step and no build to wait for.
Events, on-demand titles, series, live channels and radio publish once. The same catalogue reaches the website, the phones and the TVs — with the same paywall decision on every one.
Each app opens in your palette, under your name and logo, with every interface phrase already in your language, only the modules you run and the add-ons you’ve installed.
The TV shows a code. The viewer scans it with the phone already in their hand, sees the TV named — “Roku Ultra — Living Room” — and taps Approve. Nobody types a password on a remote.
Switch a module off and it leaves the apps too. Stage new launch artwork for the TV channel and it’s live the same day. No rebuild, no resubmission.
Everything below comes with the apps — and every setting behind it lives in your Studio, not in a developer’s backlog.
A code valid for 120 seconds, approved from a phone that’s already signed in. The sign-in is delivered to the TV itself, never to the phone that scanned — so a photo of the screen gets nobody in.
Set how many screens each plan allows. Going over never blocks a sign-in: paid playback pauses until the viewer signs a device out, in one tap, from their own account.
The browser, the phone and the TV all ask the same access engine, so entitlements never disagree. A season pass bought on the website opens the stream on the TV with no separate setup.
Palette, name, logo and every phrase in your language reach the apps each time they open. Rename “Events” to “Fixtures” in the Studio and the TV says Fixtures too.
Switch a module off and its app tab disappears with its website page and dashboard section. Switch it back on and it returns. Nothing goes back through app-store review.
Stage the channel background, the banner strip and the splash video from the dashboard. A playoff look or a holiday refresh goes live the same day.
Phones and TVs that registered for notifications before anyone signed up still get them — so “we’re live now” reaches everyone who installed the app, account or not.
A rotating banner inventory of its own for the mobile apps, run from Marketing → Mobile Ads. Each banner carries its own image and link, and switching one off takes it out of rotation.
Analytics recognise 7 connected-TV families — Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV, Android TV, Samsung, LG and other smart TVs — instead of counting them as desktops. That’s the number a sponsor asks for.
No. The apps run from the same Studio as your website — catalogue, paywall, brand, wording and module switches — so publishing, rebranding and reshaping your service never waits on a build.
Watch a TV sign in with a phone and a module switch reach the apps on a call, or read which devices your platform runs on.
A 30-minute walkthrough of the live product — no slides.
The credential is delivered to the TV itself, never to whoever scanned the code — so photographing the screen achieves nothing.
