Getting To Know Peacock TV
Peacock TV is a United States-based streaming service from NBCUniversal that launched around July 2020. It features all original content from NBC — roughly 13,000 hours of NBC archives. You can watch numerous on-demand shows and movies for free. It even lets you stream Live TV.
It also has a collection of big hits, namely Parks and Rec, the SNL, movies from Universal and DreamWorks, etc. You can also opt to subscribe for a premium account that lets you stream premium movies, the Harry Potter series, and Peacock originals.
It is among the cheap ways to stream shows on your devices such as Apple TV, Android TV, Roku, Xbox One, FireStick, smart tvs and the like.
Accessing Peacock TV inside the United States of America (USA) is quite simple. However, if you are outside the US, you might encounter problems using it even if you are a subscriber.
Watching Peacock TV In The United States
If you are inside the USA, all you need to do is visit the Peacock TV website. Then, sign up using a free account. Enter your email address and create your password.
Afterward, you will receive an email from Peacock requiring you to verify the email address you used to create an account. However, you can still access it even without going through the email verification process.
Moreover, should you desire to watch everything, you can pay for a monthly premium subscription of $4.99. If you like to get rid of advertisements, you have to spend at least $9.99 every month.
Watching Peacock TV Abroad
Streamers in America can quickly sign up and use Peacock TV without any hassle. But, if you are anywhere else outside the USA, you might not be able to access their service. Thus, we recommend using the best VPN that allows you to switch your location to the US. By doing so, you can watch all the content on Peacock for free.
Watching Peacock TV On Fire TV
Much to the public’s dismay, Peacock TV does not offer an application for Amazon Fire Stick. Though, you can still do something to watch using your Amazon device. Install a casting application on your Amazon Fire gadgets such as TV Cast or AllCast.
Next, download the Peacock application to your mobile device and ensure that your phone and Amazon gadgets are on the same Wi-Fi network. Log in to Peacock TV through your smartphone and begin watching content.
