Need to know how to log out of Netflix on TV? Maybe you're leaving a hotel, moving out, selling an old set or switching accounts. Netflix gives you three main routes: sign out with the remote on that TV, sign that one device out from your phone or computer on the Manage Access and Devices page, or sign out of every device at once. This guide walks through all three, plus brand-specific steps when Netflix's Help Center lists a different path.
Every step below comes from Netflix's official Help pages on signing out of a device, fixing a problem on your TV, Samsung, LG, Roku TV, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV, Google TV, Sony, changing your password, stopping someone from using your account, what a Netflix Household is, Profile Lock PIN and cancelling Netflix. Checked November 7, 2026.
Quick answer
On the TV, open Netflix, press Back on the remote to open the menu, then select your profile icon (top menu) or go to the bottom of the left menu, choose Get Help, then Sign out, then Yes. If you aren't near the TV, open Netflix's Manage Access and Devices page on your phone or computer, tap the down arrow next to that TV and select Sign Out. Stuck without Get Help? Press Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, Up, Up, Up, Up on the remote, then choose Sign out, Reset, Deactivate or Start Over.
Ways to sign out compared
| Method | Where you do it | What it signs out | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| On the TV (remote) | Netflix app with the remote | That TV only | You're standing in front of it |
| Remote sequence fallback | Arrow keys on the remote | That TV only | Get Help / Settings / Sign out missing |
| From a phone | Manage Access and Devices | The one device you pick | Hotel TV, Airbnb, TV you left behind |
| From a browser | Same page on a computer | The one device you pick | Same as phone, bigger screen |
| Sign out of all devices | Bottom of Manage Access and Devices | Every device on the account | Can't tell which TV is which, or password leak |
| Brand Clear Data / Remove channel | Fire TV, Sony Google TV, Roku 2 | That device's Netflix login | When the in-app Sign out path isn't available |
How to log out of Netflix on TV with the remote
For most smart TVs and streaming players, Netflix documents the same in-app path (fix a problem on your TV):
- Go to the Netflix home screen and press the Back button on your remote to open the menu.
- If the menu is at the top: go left to your profile icon, select Get Help, then Sign out, then Yes.
- If the menu is on the left: go to the bottom, select Get Help, then Sign out, then Yes.
Netflix's Samsung, LG, Roku TV and other brand pages add: if you don't see Get Help, go up and select Settings.
If the TV is stuck on an error screen
From the same troubleshooting page:
- Select More Details.
- Select Sign out or Reset.
- Sign back in only if you still want that TV on your account.
Remote sequence when Get Help is missing
If you can't find Get Help, Settings or Sign out, Netflix lists this arrow sequence on the remote:
Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, Up, Up, Up, Up
On the menu that appears, select Sign out, Reset or Deactivate. Brand pages for Samsung, LG, Roku and Google TV also list Start Over as an option on that menu.
Samsung, LG and Roku steps
Samsung TV: Netflix's Samsung page matches the general remote path: Back, profile icon or bottom of the menu, Get Help, Sign out, Yes. If Get Help is missing, go up to Settings. If those are missing too, use the remote sequence and choose Sign out, Start Over, Reset or Deactivate.
LG TV: Netflix's LG page starts from the TV Home screen and offers older deactivate paths when you see them:
- Premium: Premium Apps → Settings (if shown) → Options (you may need the green two-dot button) → Netflix Deactivate.
- Netcast: Netcast → Setup → Service Maintenance → Netflix Deactivate → OK. If Service Maintenance is missing, use Setup → Network → Netflix → Deactivate Netflix → YES.
- Setup: Setup → Network → Netflix → Deactivate Netflix → YES.
If none of those Home options appear, use the same Get Help → Sign out route as other TVs, with Settings or the remote sequence as fallbacks.
Roku TV (Haier, Hisense, Insignia, Sharp, TCL): Netflix's Roku TV page gives each brand the same Get Help path and the same remote-sequence fallback.
Roku streaming players: Netflix's Roku page says most Roku models use Get Help → Sign out. Roku 2 is different: press Home, highlight the Netflix app, press the star key on the remote, select Remove channel, then confirm Remove channel again. That deactivates the device and removes Netflix from the main menu; to restore it later, go to Streaming Channels → Movies & TV → Netflix.
Fire TV, Apple TV, Google TV and Sony
These brands matter when Netflix documents a different disconnect path, not just Get Help.
Amazon Fire TV / Fire Stick: You can still use Get Help → Sign out inside the Netflix app (Netflix repeats that path in several Fire TV error articles). Netflix's Fire TV page also documents disconnecting without the in-app menu:
- From the Fire TV home screen, select Settings.
- Select Applications → Manage All Installed Applications.
- Select Netflix.
- Select Clear Data.
To uninstall instead (which also signs you out): same path to Netflix, then Delete or Uninstall. Have your email and password ready before you remove the app if you plan to sign back in.
Apple TV: Netflix's Apple TV page uses the profile-icon path: Netflix home → Back → go left to your profile icon → Get Help → Sign out → Yes. If you can't reach Get Help, Netflix says deleting the Netflix app also signs you out: on the Apple TV home screen, highlight Netflix, press and hold the center of the clickpad/touch surface until it wiggles, press Play/Pause, then select Delete. Reinstall later from the App Store if needed. Netflix is available on Apple TV HD (4th generation) and later.
Google TV: Netflix's Google TV page splits by brand. Hisense Google TV uses the standard Get Help → Sign out path (or the remote sequence). Sony Google TV signs out by clearing app data:
- Press Home to open the Google TV home screen.
- Select All Apps → Settings → Applications → Manage Applications.
- Scroll to Netflix, select it, then select Clear Data and confirm with OK.
Other Sony TVs / Blu-ray players: Netflix's Sony page uses Get Help → Sign out for non–Google TV Sony devices, with Settings or the remote sequence as fallbacks. Sony Google TV uses the Clear Data path above.
Vizio: Netflix's Vizio page uses the same Get Help route for remotes. If the TV came with a tablet, open Netflix on that tablet, open the Menu icon, select Sign Out and confirm. Netflix notes Vizio Netflix support is for the United States and Canada.
Log out of Netflix on TV from your phone
You don't need the remote. As long as your subscription is active, Netflix's sign-out page lets you remove a TV from your phone:
- Open the Manage Access and Devices page and sign in if asked.
- Tap the down arrow next to the TV you want to remove.
- Select Sign Out.
The page shows each device's type, the most recent profile used and the last watched date and time, so you can pick the right hotel or living-room TV.
Log out remotely from a browser
The steps are the same on a computer: Manage Access and Devices → down arrow next to the TV → Sign Out. Netflix notes a few limits that matter when a hotel TV won't show up:
- It may take up to 48 hours for a device to appear on the page.
- Devices that haven't been active in the last 90 days, or were only used for Netflix games or Tudum, aren't shown.
- Complete information may not be shown for every device.
- The Netflix app for Windows may appear as an Edge web browser on this page.
If the TV isn't listed, use Sign Out of All Devices instead.
Sign out of all devices
- Go to the Manage Access and Devices page.
- At the bottom, tap or click Sign Out of All Devices.
- Tap or click Sign Out to confirm.
Any device you still use will need to be signed in again. Netflix's stop someone from using your account page pairs this with a password change when someone has access without permission.
Log out of Netflix on a hotel or Airbnb TV
On a hotel, Airbnb or holiday-rental TV, sign out with the remote before you leave (Get Help → Sign out, or the brand path above). If you already checked out, sign that TV out from your phone through Manage Access and Devices. If you can't tell which device is the hotel set, choose Sign Out of All Devices.
If you think someone else may know your password, change it too. When you change your password, Netflix recommends leaving the Sign out all devices box checked. That signs out any devices where your account is still signed in. If you reuse the same password elsewhere, our guides on deleting a Facebook account and deleting a Gmail account cover cleaning up other logins.
Profile Lock PIN
A Profile Lock PIN is needed to open that profile (or play titles downloaded from it). Signing out from Manage Access and Devices is done from your account page, not the locked profile on the TV, so it's still available when you can't open the profile.
If you've forgotten the PIN, Netflix says to select Forgot PIN? or go to netflix.com/account, open Profiles, choose the profile and select Profile Lock to edit or remove it. On the web, Netflix asks you to verify with a code sent to your email or phone, or with your account password. After changing it, your TV may need a refresh: switch to another profile and back, or sign out and sign back in. Extra member accounts have one profile and can't use Profile Lock.
Netflix Household vs signing out (short note)
Signing out removes a device's login. That is separate from Netflix Household rules. Per What is a Netflix Household?, a Household is the collection of devices on the internet at the main place you watch Netflix. Netflix says you may not share the account outside your household; people outside it need their own account or can be added as an Extra Member where that option is offered. You can update your Household from a TV, and you can still use Manage Access and Devices (including Sign out of All Devices) to remove unrecognized devices. For unauthorized use, Netflix's advice is still: change the password and sign out of devices you don't recognize (How to stop someone from using your account).
If Sign out doesn't stick
A few Netflix-documented follow-ups help when the TV asks for login again immediately or still shows your profiles after you thought you signed out:
- Restart the TV or streaming stick. Netflix's TV troubleshooting page starts with powering the device fully off (unplug if it has a power cable), waiting 15 seconds, then turning it back on before trying Netflix again.
- Confirm which method you used. Clear Data on Fire TV or Sony Google TV, Remove channel on Roku 2, and Get Help → Sign out all remove the login for that device. Closing the app or pressing Home alone does not sign you out.
- Use Manage Access and Devices as a second pass. After a hotel checkout or when selling a TV, sign that device out from your phone even if you already used the remote, then watch the device list for anything you don't recognize.
- Password + Sign out all devices. If the same unknown TV keeps coming back, change the password and leave Sign out all devices checked, per Netflix's password and unauthorized-use pages.
FAQ
How do I log out of Netflix immediately on any TV?
Open Netflix, press Back, go to your profile icon (or the bottom of the left menu), then Get Help → Sign out → Yes. If Get Help is missing, try Settings. If those options are gone, press Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, Up, Up, Up, Up and choose Sign out, Reset, Deactivate or Start Over.
How do you exit out of Netflix on a smart TV?
To leave the app temporarily, press Home on the remote. To remove your account from that TV, use Get Help → Sign out (or the brand Clear Data / Remove channel path). Signing out means you'll need to sign in again to watch on that set.
Can I log out of Netflix on TV from my phone?
Yes. Open Manage Access and Devices on your phone, tap the down arrow next to the TV and select Sign Out. You need an active subscription and access to the account login.
How do I log out of Netflix on a hotel TV after I've left?
Use Manage Access and Devices from your phone or a browser and Sign Out that TV. If it isn't listed yet (up to 48 hours) or you can't identify it, use Sign Out of All Devices. Change your password with Sign out all devices checked if the password may have been shared.
Why isn't my TV on the Manage Access and Devices page?
Netflix says new devices can take up to 48 hours to appear. Devices inactive for 90 days, or used only for games or Tudum, aren't listed. Use Sign Out of All Devices instead.
Does signing out of Netflix cancel my membership?
No. Netflix says signing out of your account or deleting the Netflix app does not cancel your account. Cancelling is done on the Manage your membership page (Cancel → Finish Cancellation), or through your payment partner when the cancel option isn't shown in the account.
How do I stop someone using my account on a TV I left behind?
Sign that TV out from Manage Access and Devices, or use Sign Out of All Devices. Then change your password and leave Sign out all devices checked, as Netflix recommends when someone may be using the account without permission.
Can I sign out of a TV if I forgot my profile PIN?
Yes. Sign the TV out from Manage Access and Devices on your phone or computer. To recover the PIN, select Forgot PIN? or edit/remove it under Profiles → Profile Lock on netflix.com/account.
How do I log out of Netflix on a Fire Stick?
Use Get Help → Sign out inside Netflix, or on Fire TV go to Settings → Applications → Manage All Installed Applications → Netflix → Clear Data. Uninstalling Netflix from the same Applications screen also signs you out.
How do I log out of Netflix on Apple TV?
In the Netflix app: Back → profile icon → Get Help → Sign out → Yes. If Get Help isn't reachable, delete the Netflix app from the Apple TV home screen (hold until it wiggles, Play/Pause → Delete), then reinstall from the App Store if you need it again.
Does Sign out of All Devices affect phones and laptops too?
Yes. Netflix signs out every device connected to the account. You'll need to sign back in with your (new) password on anything you still use.
What's the difference between signing out and Extra Member / Household?
Signing out ends a device's login. Household rules cover where the account may be used; Extra Member is a paid add-on for someone outside the household where Netflix offers it. Use Manage Access and Devices to remove unwanted devices either way.
Wrapping up
For most people, how to log out of Netflix on TV comes down to Back → Get Help → Sign out on the remote, or Manage Access and Devices when you're away from the screen. Use Clear Data on Fire TV or Sony Google TV, or Remove channel on Roku 2, when those are the paths Netflix documents for that hardware. Setting up a new TV at home next?
