Netflix not only uses the TV in your home (considered the main device to use the account) to define where you are logging in, but also the IP address and WiFi network.
With that, every time someone tries to log in with your password, other than on the main TV, Netflix will send a verification code to the account owner's email.
If there is a configuration to send this code by SMS, this can also happen to verify the new login.
Therefore, it is possible to access these emails and see the verification code sent, and with that, allow other people, who are not account holders, to access it.
The Netflix platform defines a main point, that is, where the account will be logged in. The main point can be a smart TV or a streaming channel. However, the ideal so that you can share your password without being charged is not having a TV as the main point.
This tip is valid for all people who prefer their account to be logged in on devices such as phones, tablets or notebooks, for example.
However, if you want to watch something on TV, ideally you mirror your cell phone screen to the television or connect your laptop to it. So you don't have to worry about new fees.
As we said, the Netflix platform uses the IP address of the account holder's device and WiFi network to configure and then define the main point of the account. But, if you don't want to pay the extra fees, just login through your home WiFi.
So, after logging in on your laptop or phone, you can continue to watch movies and series on other devices.
It is worth remembering that the platform can still change some rules, and with that, you will have to connect again with the account holder's WiFi to watch what you want. With these tips you avoid paying extra fees and still manage to share your password!
