What devices let you stream How to Train Your Dragon on Peacock

Peacock works on nearly every streaming device you already own. read the app on your phone or tablet (iOS or Android), visit peacock.com on any web browser, or install the app on your smart TV if it runs Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV, Google TV, or Samsung Tizen. You can also stream through gaming consoles including PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.

If you have an older smart TV without a built-in app store, you can still watch by connecting a streaming device like a Roku stick, Amazon Fire TV stick, or Apple TV box to your TV's HDMI port. Peacock will work on any of these devices as long as your internet connection is stable.

How to search for and play the movies

Open the Peacock app or website and use the search bar at the top. Type "How to Train Your Dragon" and the results will show you which films are currently available. Tap or click on the one you want to watch, then select the play button. The movie will start streaming when ready.

If you are on the free tier of Peacock, you may see an ad before the film begins and occasionally during playback. If you have a paid subscription, the movie will play without interruption. Either way, you can pause, rewind, or fast-forward at any time.

Understanding Peacock's subscription tiers

Peacock offers two ways to watch: a free tier with ads and a paid tier without ads. Both include access to the same movies, including How to Train Your Dragon. The free version shows advertisements before and during content. The paid subscription removes ads entirely and costs a monthly fee that varies by region and promotional offers.

If you have a cable or internet provider that includes Peacock as a benefit—such as Comcast Xfinity, Cox, or Verizon Fios—you may already have access to the ad-free version at no extra cost. Check your provider's website or contact their customer service to confirm what is included with your account.

What to do if a movie is not showing up in your search

Peacock's catalog changes regularly because the service licenses films for specific periods. If How to Train Your Dragon 2 or The Hidden World is not appearing in search results, it is temporarily unavailable. This does not mean it will never return—licensing agreements often renew, and films rotate back onto the service.

The fastest way to stay informed is to add the movie to your watchlist. Open the film's page (you can find it through a web search for "How to Train Your Dragon Peacock") and select "Add to Watchlist." Peacock will send you a notification when the film becomes available again. You can also check Peacock's "Coming Soon" section to see if the movie is scheduled to return on a specific date.

Troubleshooting playback problems

If a movie starts but keeps stopping, pausing, or buffering, the issue is usually your internet connection. Restart your router by unplugging it for 30 seconds, then plug it back in and wait for it to reconnect. Move closer to your Wi-Fi router if you are using wireless, or plug directly into your modem with an ethernet cable if your device supports it.

If the problem continues, try closing the Peacock app completely and reopening it. On phones and tablets, swipe up from the bottom of the screen (or use the app switcher) to close the app entirely, then tap it again to reopen. On smart TVs, go to your device's settings, find the Peacock app, and select "Force Stop" or "Clear Cache," then reopen the app. If you are still having trouble, sign out of your Peacock account, sign back in, and try playing the movie again.
