Logging in to apps on seperate pucks

Evening all. I had my 4 x sky stream pucks arrive yesterday and have had no end of problems with them. The usual stuff that is all over this forum about not being about to activate the subscription being the main one and, having spent an hour on the phone with Sky trying to fix the two that just refuse to connect, I am just playing a waiting game on that fix. (If anyone who can do anything is reading this then I believe that part of the problem might be that the picks are showing as due for delivery in two days time when they were in fact delivered yesterday).

 

Anyway onto the less important problem that I hope I'm just being dense about. Having signed into Netflix, Amazon etc on one Puck do I really need to do this 3 more times on every single puck? Is there no way for those logins to be synced across the devices on the network? Hopefully I've missed something obvious, otherwise this is such poor implementation (and seems like one of many).

Hi @jrr87 

 

Unfortunately not, each device is an independent client and doesn't sync data between them.

 

The good new is that it is a one time process, unless of course you reset your device for whatever reason or discovery+, this seems to require logging on every few months even if you use regularly!

Thanks for the reply. Bit of a pain but at least most services have a code or QR code scan to make it easier (looking at you though Netflix...).
