The quickest way to sign out depends on what you're using

On a phone or tablet, open the Peacock app, tap the profile icon (usually in the bottom right corner), scroll down, and tap Sign Out. On a web browser, go to peacock.com, click your profile icon in the top right, and select Sign Out from the menu. On a smart TV or streaming device, the process is similar—find the profile menu and look for a sign-out option, though the exact steps vary by device.

If you're signing out because you're done watching for the day, that's all you need to do. If you're selling the device, giving it away, or letting someone else use it, you may also want to remove your payment information or sign out of all active sessions at once—those steps are covered below.

Key Takeaways

  • On phones and tablets, tap your profile icon and select Sign Out from the menu.
  • On a web browser, click your profile icon in the top right corner and choose Sign Out.
  • On smart TVs and streaming devices, navigate to your profile settings and look for a sign-out or log-out option.
  • If you want to sign out everywhere at once, you can do this from your account settings on the Peacock website.
  • Removing your payment method before handing off a device adds an extra layer of security.

Signing out on a phone or tablet

Open the Peacock app and look for the profile icon—it's usually a circle with your initials or a generic person silhouette in the bottom right corner of the screen. Tap it to open your profile menu.

Scroll down to the bottom of the menu. You'll see a Sign Out button. Tap it, and you'll be logged out when ready. The app will return to the sign-in screen, and you can close it or hand the phone to someone else.

Signing out on a web browser

Go to peacock.com in any web browser. In the top right corner, you'll see your profile icon. Click it to open a dropdown menu.

Select Sign Out from the list. You'll be logged out of that browser on that device. If you use Peacock on multiple browsers or computers, you'll need to sign out of each one separately—signing out in Chrome doesn't sign you out in Safari or Firefox, for example.

Signing out on a smart TV or streaming device

The steps vary depending on whether you're using a Roku, Apple TV, Amazon Fire Stick, Google TV, or another platform, but the general idea is the same. Open the Peacock app and navigate to the settings or profile section—usually found in a menu icon or at the bottom of the home screen.

Look for an option labeled Sign Out, Log Out, or Account. Select it, and confirm if prompted. You'll be signed out, and the next person to open the app will see the sign-in screen.

Signing out of all devices at once

If you want to sign out everywhere—your phone, tablet, computer, and TV—without going to each device individually, you can do this from your account settings on the Peacock website. Go to peacock.com, click your profile icon, and select Account.

Look for a section called Active Sessions, Devices, or Sign Out Everywhere. Click the option to sign out of all sessions. This will log you out on every device where you're currently signed in. You'll need to sign back in on any device you want to use again.

Removing your payment information before handing off a device

If you're giving away or selling the device, signing out alone isn't enough—you should also remove your payment method so the new owner can't accidentally charge your account. On the Peacock website, go to your Account settings and find the Payment Method or Billing section.

Delete or remove the card on file. After you've done this and signed out, the device is safe to hand over. The new owner can sign in with their own account and add their own payment information if they want to subscribe.

What happens after you sign out

Once you sign out, your watch history, saved shows, and preferences stay on your Peacock account—they don't disappear. When you sign back in on any device, everything will be there. You won't lose your subscription either; if you're a paid subscriber, your account remains active, and you can sign back in anytime.

If you're on a shared account and someone else signs in on the same device, their profile will be separate from yours. Peacock allows multiple profiles on a single account, so family members can have their own watch history and recommendations without interfering with each other.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will signing out cancel my Peacock subscription?

No. Signing out just logs you out of the app or website. Your subscription remains active, and you can sign back in anytime. You'll only lose access if you cancel your subscription through your account settings or your payment method is declined.

What if I forget my password after signing out?

Go to the Peacock sign-in page and click Forgot Password. Enter the email address associated with your account, and Peacock will send you a link to reset it. Follow the link in your email, create a new password, and sign back in.

Can I sign out of just one device without signing out everywhere?

Yes. Sign out using the steps for that specific device (phone, browser, or TV). You'll only be logged out on that device. You'll remain signed in on all your other devices unless you sign out of them individually or use the "Sign Out Everywhere" option.

If I sign out on my TV, will my family members be able to watch?

Not unless they have their own Peacock account or sign in with yours. If you share a subscription with family, each person should have their own profile on the account so they can sign in separately. This keeps watch histories separate and lets everyone see personalized recommendations.

Do I need to sign out before I can sign in with a different account?

Yes. You must sign out of the current account before you can sign in with a different one. On most devices, the sign-in screen will appear after you sign out, and you can enter the new account details.
