The streaming service now lets users log out specific devices that have accessed their account.
Netflix says it knows you’ll be traveling around this holiday season, so just in case you loaded your account on your distant uncle’s TV and forgot to sign out, you can now log them off manually. You know, in case there’s somebody like an ex accessing your account you don’t want to. Or, perhaps, there might be changes to password sharing in the near future that may require users to voluntarily log off people leaching onto your account, or else the company might do it for them.
On Tuesday, the company announced a new feature in Netflix accounts called Manage Access and Devices that lets users log off specific devices. The new feature, which can be found in account settings in the app, lists the type of device that used Netflix, the user who recently watched through the account, when they last watched from the account and their nearby location based on an IP address.
