Sign in on your TV
The code is not entered here. If your TV told you to come to this page and type the code, that instruction is wrong and we are fixing it. You enter the code in the ROUNDS app on your phone. That is deliberate — we will never ask for a pairing code or a password on a web page, so if a site ever does, it is not us.
What to do
- Leave your TV on the screen showing the code. It stays valid for about ten minutes.
- Open ROUNDS on your phone and make sure you are signed in.
- Go to Settings → Account → Pair a TV.
- Type the code from your TV screen and confirm.
When you type the code, the app shows how long ago the TV asked to sign in, and flags it if that was more than a minute. Walking to another room takes about that long, so the flag on its own does not mean something is wrong. The check behind it is real, though: only approve a code you are reading off your own television right now, and deny anything you did not start yourself.
Your TV signs in within a few seconds. On an Apple TV your synced workouts, your history and your subscription come with it. Self-paced formats are the exception: strength and chipper workouts do not run on a TV, so they are left out of the TV library, and a programme session in one of those formats is listed but cannot be started. On an Android TV, signing in is all there is for now. Browsing and running workouts on it are not available yet.
If it does not work
- The code expired. Codes are short-lived. Go back on the TV and start again to get a fresh one.
- "Pair a TV" is not in your phone's settings. That row only appears when you are signed in. Sign in on the phone first, then look again.
- You typed it wrong. Codes avoid easily-confused characters, but check the TV screen again rather than guessing.
- The app says to try again in a moment. Attempts are limited to five a minute, and checking a code counts towards that as well as confirming it. Wait a minute and try the same code again — it stays valid until it expires, and fetching a fresh code from the TV will not lift the limit.
- You do not have the app on a phone yet. You need it — this is the only way to sign an Android TV in. On an Apple TV you can instead sign in with Apple directly on the TV.
Signing a TV out
On an Apple TV, open the gear icon on the home screen, then Preferences, then Sign out. The Android TV app has no sign-out yet. Clearing the app's data, or uninstalling it, is the only way to unpair that TV from the TV itself. Deleting your account also ends its session, as below.
Deleting your account ends its sessions on our servers, so the TV stops syncing. If you delete the account from another device, the Apple TV does not sign itself out, and it keeps showing whatever it had already downloaded, so sign it out as above. Deleting the account on the Apple TV itself signs that TV out and clears what it had downloaded:Delete account sits next to Sign out in the same Preferences panel. See deleting your account.
