What Beacon is, and is not. Beacon Player is software. It contains no channels, films or series and does not include, recommend or sell access to any content or provider. You add a playlist from a service you have a subscription with, and you are responsible for having the right to use it.

Set up from your phone

Link the TV with a 6-character code, add playlists on your phone, and every linked TV picks them up.

Instant zapping

One stream, no probing, hardware decoding, and a preview of the highlighted channel while you browse.

TV guide and catch-up

A 3-hour grid with now and next, favourites first, and catch-up for channels that support it.

Films and series

Posters, details, resume across devices, next episode, audio and subtitle selection.

Built for big lines

Tested with 50,000 channels and 250,000 titles: cached startup in seconds, no reloads.

Everything in sync

Playlists, favourites and where you left off follow you to every TV linked to your account.

Questions

Does Beacon include channels?

No. Beacon is a media player, like a browser is for websites. You bring a playlist from a provider you already subscribe to.

Which TVs are supported?

Samsung Smart TVs from 2018 onwards (Tizen 4.0 and newer).

How does the trial work?

Every TV gets 7 days free, no card needed. After that a subscription covers all TVs linked to your account.

Can I cancel?

Any time from your account page. Your subscription runs to the end of the paid period.
