How to Watch Purple Cow TV Away from Home

Last reviewed 2026-05-11

Purple Cow TV supports watching away from home. Channels marked NEW! On the Go are available outside your home connection.

Before You Start

  • Sign in with the same Purple Cow TV account you use at home.
  • Remember that not every channel in your package will work away from home.

Steps

  1. Open the Purple Cow TV app on a supported device while you are away from home.
  2. Sign in and look for channels marked NEW! On the Go in the guide or channel list.
  3. Choose one of those channels to confirm away-from-home viewing is working on your device.
  4. If a channel works at home and not away from home, check whether it has the NEW! On the Go label first.
