How to sign in on a TV with a code
The ResetVPN app on Android TV signs in without a password — you confirm the code from the TV screen on the website, in the Mini App or in the phone app.

The ResetVPN app on an Android TV set or box signs in to your account with a code — no typing a password with the remote. Get the TV app at resetvpn.com/download/android-tv (opens in a new tab).
How to approve the sign-in on the website#
Launch the app on the TV. It shows an 8-character code and a QR code.
Open the approval page. Scan the QR with your phone — the website opens with the code filled in. Or open account.resetvpn.com/device (opens in a new tab), enter the code in "Code from the TV" and click "Continue". Sign in first if asked.
Compare the codes. On "Check it matches the code on your TV", make sure it matches the TV. With several subscriptions, pick one under "Subscription for the TV".
Click "Connect this TV". You'll see "TV connected", and your subscription appears on the TV within a few seconds.
You can also do this from a subscription card on the website and in the Mini App: "Smart TV" → "ResetVPN app on the TV" → the "Code from the TV" field. The TV gets that card's subscription. If you use only the Mini App, enter the code there: the QR on the TV opens the website. In the ResetVPN app on your phone, use the "Android TV" button on a subscription card in the "Subs" tab.
Approve only your own TV. Click "Connect this TV" only if you started the sign-in yourself and the code is on your TV screen right now. If someone sent you the code or link, choose "This isn't my TV".
Good to know#
The code is valid for 10 minutes.
Under "Subscription for the TV" you can pick only your own active VPN subscription — not Premium or Router. Without one, the TV signs in but can connect only after you buy a subscription or start the trial.
Once the TV connects, you get a "Signed in on a TV" notification on the website and a "New sign-in on a TV — ResetVPN" email.
If it wasn't you#
On the website, open "Settings" → "Where you're signed in" → "Show list", click "Sign out" in the TV's row and change your password. The Mini App has no sign-in list — sign in to the website with Telegram, see The Telegram Mini App: what it is and how to open it.
If something goes wrong#
"Code not found or expired. Get a new one on the TV."
The code lasts 10 minutes — get a new one on the TV.
"This code has already been used"
Each code works once. If the TV still asks you to sign in, get a new code on it.
