Watch streaming sites with Hide My IP

Streaming sites block many VPN addresses, and their lists change often. If one location does not work, another location often does.

Steps

  1. Close the streaming site or app.
  2. In Hide My IP, connect to a location in the country of the content you want.
  3. Open the streaming site again. On a computer, use a new private window, or clear the cookies of the site first. The site may remember your old location.
  4. If the site still blocks you, connect to another location in the same country and try again.

Tips for the browser extension

  • Keep Prevent WebRTC IP Leak turned on.
  • In Chrome and Firefox, turn on Match HTML5 geolocation to server and Match timezone to server. Some sites check these as well as your IP.
  • Private windows need permission first. See Private windows.

Apps on phones and TVs

Streaming apps can use the location of your phone or the region of your account as well as your IP. If an app still shows the wrong content, try the website in a browser instead.
