What if the code doesn鈥檛 work?
Here are a few things to check:
- Make sure only one person is trying to sign in with the code. If two or more people try to use the same code, it won鈥檛 work.
- Each code is unique and expires after 60 minutes. If it's been on your TV screen for more than 60 minutes, you鈥檒l need to press 鈥淏ack鈥 and hit 鈥淪ign in鈥 again on your TV to get a new code.
- The code should be 6 numbers long. Make sure it's no longer or shorter.
- If you see a message saying "Sorry, something isn't working right now. Please try again later." that means we鈥檙e having technical issues. So you鈥檒l need to try again later.
