Parental controls on APP.

I am not at home, and the app is not letting me watch live tv, due to parental controls.  I don't believe we have ever set a pin for that, as we live alone.  How can I turn this off when I am not at home??

Hello @reid_parker

We understand you're having an issue with the parental controls settings.

Take a look at this article here that explains how to change the settings of your parental controls.

Let us know if it works for you.

I had mentioned that I am not at home.  So I cannot press any button on the TV remote control.  We did not do anything with that, as we live alone with no other kids or family, so there is no need for a lock or a code.

Sooooo ... how could that work for me, if I am not at home, and cannot be at home for a week?

Hello @reid_parker

Did you try the step that tells you to access the parental controls from your app?

I did.  I can access that with no PIN. For the master account  there is nothing set.

Oddly, that works.  Seems like you should be able to tie in the master accounts into one, but, that att.net account works.

How do I watch on my computer?  I am 66 years old, and would like to watch on my chromebook, not my smartphone.

Hello @reid_parker

Is your chromebook android app ready? If so you can download app from google play store.

Once downloaded on your chromebook you can login to watch on your device.

Wow ... you can seriously only watch the service you've paid for with an APP if you're not home???  That really underlines how much Management doesn't care about Customer Service, and providing a quality product.

 

Thank you for your help.  You can pass my comments off to management, but they won't care.
