Keeping your Netflix account secure means knowing how to log out when needed, especially on shared devices like smart TVs. To sign out of Netflix on most smart TVs, you’ll need to open the Netflix app, navigate to “Get Help” or “Settings,” and select the “Sign Out” option that appears near the bottom of the menu. The exact steps may vary slightly depending on your TV model and the version of the Netflix app installed.
Netflix has recently updated its app design on many smart TV platforms, which has changed how you access the logout function. For the latest app redesign, you’ll typically need to select your profile icon first, then look for account or settings options. From there, the sign out option should be available. If you’re having trouble finding it, you can also manage your devices through the Netflix website by going to the “Manage Access and Devices” page.
Logging out of Netflix on TVs in public places like hotels is particularly important for account security. If you can’t figure out how to sign out, the hotel staff with technical knowledge should be able to help you navigate the process. Remember that signing out of one device doesn’t automatically log you out of Netflix on all your devices.

Understanding Netflix Account Management
Managing your Netflix account properly helps you control who has access to your profile and ensures nobody is using your account without permission. Netflix offers several tools to help you monitor and manage device access.
Navigating the Netflix App Interface
The Netflix app interface varies slightly depending on your TV model, but generally follows similar navigation patterns. To access account settings, start by opening the Netflix app on your smart TV. Look for your profile icon, usually located in the upper right corner of the screen.
Select this icon to reveal a dropdown menu. From there, you can navigate to “Account” or “Settings” options. Some TV models may require you to press specific remote buttons to access these menus.
If you can’t find these options directly in the app, you might need to use Netflix’s website on a computer or mobile device instead.
Managing Access and Devices
Netflix’s “Manage Access and Devices” page is a powerful tool for monitoring and controlling account access. This feature shows all devices currently signed into your account, including smart TVs, phones, and computers.
To access this feature:
- Visit Netflix.com on a web browser
- Log in to your account
- Select your profile icon
- Choose “Account” from the dropdown menu
- Look for “Security & Privacy” section
- Select “Manage Access and Devices”
From this page, you can view device types, locations, and when they last accessed Netflix. To sign out a specific device, simply click the “Sign Out” button next to that device. If you suspect unauthorized access, you can use the “Sign out of all devices” option for a complete reset.

Using a Web Browser for Account Sign Out

For account management, you can also visit the “Account” page first. From there, scroll down to find additional options for managing your devices.

The web browser method works on any device with a browser – including computers, tablets, and phones. This alternative can be helpful if the app method isn’t working properly.
Sign Out of All Devices for Enhanced Privacy
Netflix offers a powerful feature to sign out of all devices simultaneously. This is especially useful if you’ve forgotten to log out somewhere or suspect unauthorized access.
To use this feature, go to Netflix.com in a web browser and sign in. Click on your profile icon and select “Account.” Scroll down to the “Settings” section and find “Sign out of all devices.”
Click this option and confirm your choice. Netflix will sign out your account on all devices, including TVs, phones, tablets, and computers.
The process may take up to 8 hours to complete on all devices. After using this feature, you’ll need to sign in again on any device you want to use.
This method provides enhanced privacy and security, especially after changing your password or if you believe someone unauthorized has been using your account.
