How to download Netflix on a Samsung TV. Are you excited to finally have Netflix on your TV? Watching your favorite shows and latest movies on a big screen can be even better than watching a movie or TV series on your desktop or mobile device.

How to download Netflix on a Samsung TV

The Netflix app download process is the same for smart TVs, home theaters, game consoles, and similar streaming devices. Many of them will already have Netflix installed when they first turn on, or their remote will have a Netflix button.

Take a look at the remote control and the main menu of the TV. If you don't see Netflix anywhere, you should download it from the TV app store. If you cannot find the app store, please consult the user manual or contact the Samsung service center for instructions. Also, make sure your TV model supports Netflix.

1. How to download Netflix

To download the Netflix app from the Samsung App Store, do the following:

Turn on the TV and make sure it is connected to your Wi-Fi network.
In the main menu, choose Samsung Apps. You will be directed to the app store.
On the left, you will see a menu with different categories of apps. On top of that, there is a search bar. If you don't already see the Netflix icon on the right, enter Netflix in the search bar and click the magnifying glass.
Select the Netflix icon.
Select the blue Download button.
Go back to the main screen and find Netflix.

2. How to start watching

After downloading the app, you can log into your Netflix account and start watching. If you're not sure how to do this, read below:

Select the Netflix icon you now see on the home screen.
Choose the Sign in option. You may see the following question instead of Sign in: Are you a Netflix member? You must select Yes and proceed. This is if you are already a Netflix subscriber.
If you've never watched Netflix before, you need to choose a subscription plan and create an account first. You can sign up from the official Netflix website, where you will be presented with packages to choose from. Once you've provided Netflix with your personal and credit card information, you'll be able to create a password for your account and get started. If you already have an account, skip this step.
Enter your email address and password. You may need to activate your account before logging in. If an activation code appears, go to this page and enter the code.

Does the remote control have a Smart Hub button? If yes, you can press the button and choose Netflix from there, then continue with the described steps.

3. How to get out

If you want to log out of your account and, for example, use another profile, here's what to do:

Open the Netflix home screen and open the menu on the left.
Choose Settings
Find the Exit option and select it.
Choose Yes to confirm your action.
