The fastest way to log out depends on what you're using
On a phone or tablet, open Peacock, tap your profile icon in the top right corner, scroll down, and tap Sign Out. On a web browser, click your profile icon in the top right, then click Sign Out. On a smart TV or streaming device, go to Settings, find Account, and select Sign Out. The exact steps vary slightly by device, but the principle is the same: find your profile menu and look for a sign-out option.
If you cannot find the sign-out button or your device is not responding, you can also log out remotely from any web browser by visiting your Peacock account settings and ending the session there. This works even if you have lost physical access to the device.
Key Takeaways
- On phones and tablets, tap your profile icon and select Sign Out from the menu.
- On web browsers, click your profile icon in the top right corner and choose Sign Out.
- On smart TVs and streaming devices, go to Settings, then Account, then Sign Out.

- Signing out removes your profile from that device but does not delete your account or viewing history.
Logging out on iOS and Android phones
Open the Peacock app and look for your profile icon — it usually appears as a circle with your initials or a generic user symbol in the top right corner of the screen. Tap it once. A menu will drop down with several options including your name, email, and account settings.
Scroll down to the bottom of this menu until you see Sign Out. Tap it. Peacock will ask you to confirm; tap Sign Out again. You will be returned to the login screen, and your profile will no longer be active on that phone or tablet.
Logging out on web browsers
Go to peacock.com and log in if you are not already. In the top right corner of the page, you will see your profile icon — the same circle with your initials or user symbol. Click it once.
A dropdown menu will appear. Click Sign Out at the bottom of the menu. You will be logged out when ready and returned to the Peacock home page. If you try to watch something, you will be asked to log in again.
Logging out on Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV, and Chromecast
The steps are similar across most streaming devices, though the exact path varies. On Roku, press the Home button on your remote, navigate to your profile icon in the top right, select Settings, then Account, then Sign Out. On Fire TV, go to Settings from the home screen, select Apps, find Peacock, and choose Sign Out or Uninstall.
On Apple TV, open Peacock, go to Settings (the gear icon), scroll to Account, and tap Sign Out. On Chromecast with Google TV, open Peacock, tap your profile icon, and select Sign Out. If your device does not show a sign-out option, you can also uninstall and reinstall the app, which will remove your login.
Signing out of all devices at once from the website
If you own multiple devices or want to end all active sessions without visiting each one, you can do this from your Peacock account page. Go to peacock.com, log in, click your profile icon, and select Account Settings.
Look for a section called Active Sessions, Devices, or Sign Out Everywhere — the exact name depends on when Peacock last updated its interface. Click the option to end all sessions or sign out of all devices. This will log you out everywhere at once. You will need to log in again on any device you want to use.
What happens after you sign out
Signing out removes your profile from that device but does not delete your account, your watch history, or your saved shows and movies. The next time you log in on any device, your account will be exactly as you left it. Your watchlist, bookmarks, and viewing progress will all be there.
If you share your Peacock password with family members, signing out on one device does not affect their logins on other devices. Each person's session is separate. However, if you sign out of all devices at once from your account settings, everyone will be logged out and will need to log in again.
Troubleshooting if the sign-out button is missing or not working
If you cannot find a sign-out option on your device, try closing the Peacock app completely and reopening it. Sometimes the menu does not load properly on the first try. If that does not work, try uninstalling and reinstalling the app — this will remove your login without needing to find a sign-out button.
If you are on a web browser and the sign-out button is not responding, try clearing your browser's cookies and cache, then refreshing the page. If the problem persists, try a different browser. You can also log out remotely from your account settings on peacock.com, even if you cannot access the sign-out button on the device itself.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does signing out delete my watch history?
No. Your watch history, saved shows, watchlist, and all other account data remain on your Peacock account. When you log back in, everything will be there. Signing out only removes your profile from that specific device.
Can I sign out of just one device if I'm logged in on multiple devices?
Yes. Sign out on each device individually using the steps above. You can also go to your account settings on the Peacock website and end individual sessions if your device is listed there, though not all devices appear in this list.
What if I forgot my password and can't log back in after signing out?
Go to peacock.com and click Sign In. Click Forgot Password and enter your email address. Peacock will send you a link to reset your password. Follow the link, create a new password, and log in with your email and new password.
If I sign out on my TV, will other people still be able to watch Peacock?
Yes, if they have their own login. Signing out removes your profile from that TV, but anyone else can log in with their own email and password. If you want to prevent anyone from using Peacock on that TV, you would need to uninstall the app or change your account password.
