Other compatible devices
The available features can differ between devices, so make sure the Hulu app is updated before beginning setup.
Activation Code Not Working?
If the code is not accepted or the TV does not complete the sign-in process, try these solutions.
Check the Code
Enter the code exactly as displayed on your TV. If the code is no longer valid, return to the app and start the login process again.
Check Your Internet
Make sure your TV and the device you are using for sign-in have a working internet connection. Restart your router if the connection is unstable.
Restart the Hulu App
Close the app completely and open it again. This can generate a new login session or code.
Restart Your TV
Turn off the television, disconnect it from power for a short time, and start it again. Then reopen the app.
Update the App
Check your TV's app store for an available Hulu update. An outdated app can sometimes cause login or playback problems.
Can't Sign In to Your Account?
If you cannot sign in, carefully check your email address and password. If you have forgotten your password, use the account recovery option provided by the service.
You can also try signing in from another device to determine whether the problem is related to your account or the television.
Hulu App Not Loading
If the app stays on a loading screen or does not open correctly:
Restart the TV.
Check your internet connection.
Update the app.
Check for TV software updates.
Clear app data or cache if your device provides that option.
Reinstall the app if necessary.
Hulu's Help Center also provides troubleshooting resources for app loading, login, cache, and device-related problems.
