IPTV on Multiple Devices: How Many Screens at Once?

One of the first questions people ask before they buy an IPTV subscription is simple: can the whole household watch at the same time? With AbyssTV the answer is yes. Every plan already lets you watch on two screens at once, and you can go up to five when the whole family wants something different at the same moment.

This guide explains what a "connection" is, how many you really need, which devices you can use, and what each option costs.

What is a connection?

A connection is one stream playing at the same time. If you are watching the match in the living room while someone else watches a film upstairs, that is two connections.

The important word is simultaneous. You can install AbyssTV on as many of your own devices as you like — your Firestick, your phone, your Smart TV and your tablet — but the number of screens playing at the same moment is what your plan's connection count limits.

A few examples:

• One person, several devices: you watch on the TV in the evening and on your phone on the train. You never play both at once, so one household plan with the standard two connections is more than enough.
• A couple: sport on one screen, a series on the other — two connections, already included.
• A family: a film in the living room, cartoons in the kids' room and the match on a phone — that is three connections.

How many screens can I watch at once on AbyssTV?

Every AbyssTV plan includes 2 connections as standard. If you need more, you can choose 3, 4 or 5 connections when you order. Connections are for one household — the people you live with — which keeps the service fast and stable for everyone.

What does each option cost?

Here are AbyssTV's prices for each plan length and number of screens (prices as of September 2026 — always check plans & pricing for the current offer):

Every option includes the same service: 13,000+ live channels, live sports and PPV events, 60,000+ movies and series on demand, Full HD with 4K on supported content, a full TV guide (EPG) and instant activation. The only difference is how many screens can play at the same time.

Which devices can I use?

AbyssTV works on almost anything that streams:

• Amazon Firestick and Fire TV
• Android phones, tablets, boxes and Android TV
• Samsung and LG Smart TVs
• Apple TV, iPhone and iPad
• MAG boxes
• Windows and Mac computers

You can mix devices freely — a Firestick in the living room, a Smart TV in the bedroom and a phone on the go all work on the same subscription. Popular players such as TiviMate and IPTV Smarters are supported; our supported devices page has the full list, and our setup guides walk you through each one step by step.

How to set up AbyssTV on several devices

1. Order your plan with the number of connections you need. Your login arrives by email the moment your payment clears.
2. Install a player on each device — for example TiviMate or IPTV Smarters. On a Firestick, follow our Firestick installation guide.
3. Sign in with the same AbyssTV details on every device. There is nothing extra to activate.
4. Start watching. Up to your connection count can play at the same time.

Can I add more screens later?

Yes. You can upgrade your plan or add connections whenever you like — the change applies from your next renewal. If you are not sure how many you need, start with the standard two; you can always add more once you see how your household watches.

Tips for smooth streaming on every screen

• Give each stream enough bandwidth. Several Full HD streams at once need a faster connection than one. If a stream starts to stutter, our guide to fixing IPTV buffering helps you find the cause.
• Use a cable where you can. An Ethernet connection to the TV or box is the most stable option for sport and PPV nights.
• Keep apps up to date. Current versions of TiviMate and IPTV Smarters handle playback and the TV guide best.

Try it on your own screens first

The easiest way to find out what works for your household is to try it. Start a free trial, test AbyssTV on the devices you actually use, and choose your plan and connections when you are ready.
