How to log out of Netflix on the mobile app or from all of your devices at once
- You should log out of your Netflix account when you're not using your usual devices.
- If you forget to sign out of your account on an unfamiliar device, there is a simple way to log out of all devices through Netflix's settings.
Anyone who has ever shared their Netflix password knows it is essential to log out after the collective viewing experience is over. Anyone with access to your Netflix account has the ability to update your settings, kick you off while they are watching, or even worse: mess up your recommendation algorithm.
But, if you forget to sign out of your account on someone else's device, Netflix gives its users the option to log out of all devices and accounts — no matter what device you're on — in just a few simple steps.
