How many people can watch Hulu at once? The details you need to know about Hulu sharing.

Hulu made its debut in 2007 and has amassed more than 47 million customers to its subscription-based streaming service, according to the latest reports. The platform is home to original Hulu shows like The Handmaid’s Tale, as well as exclusive content like FX’s Under the Banner of Heaven to holiday classics such as Die Hard. 

If you are looking to activate Hulu on your device, know there are several plans to choose from in the base and bundle sections. A basic Hulu account—its most popular—with ad breaks goes for $7.99 and still includes access to a plethora of shows and films. There are also plans with Hulu + Live TV and an ad-free version. If you want to add multiple streaming services to your viewing selection, Hulu gives users the option for add-ons like Disney+ and HBO Max. 

How many people can watch Hulu at once? 

The number of people who can watch Hulu at once depends on the user’s selected plan. Two people can stream simultaneously from different devices at one time if they have a basic Hulu account. However, Live TV subscribers can opt for the “unlimited screens add-on” to stream on any device connected to the customer’s home network or three mobile devices if outside of the network. 

Customers who are also subscribed to HBO Max, Cinemax, SHOWTIME and/or STARZ on Hulu can stream simultaneously on five screens.
