Frequently asked questions

Which guide should I read first?

If your TV already shows a code, start with how to enter an activation code. If it does not, start with where to find the activation code. Use the device guides when you need help installing the app first.

Does ComActivate activate apps or devices for me?

No. ComActivate is an independent set of written guides. Activation is done by you, for free, on the official website or app shown on your own TV or device.

Are these guides for one streaming service?

No. The guides describe the code-based sign-in that most streaming and TV network apps share, with device-specific steps for smart TVs, Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV and Google TV.

How do I know an activation page is the official one?

Type the web address exactly as it appears on your TV or scan the QR code on your own screen. Avoid ads and links from emails or messages, and never pay a fee to activate.
