THE QUICK ANSWER

Get started

Open the ITVX app on a supported Roku device and choose a programme to reach its sign-in screen. You can pair the television using a code in your browser or complete the email sign-in process using the remote.

IPVANISH · AFFILIATE PARTNER

Change your IP location. Set up IPVanish.

Add IPVanish to your viewing setup to choose your connection location and encrypt traffic to its servers. Install it on a supported device, then open your streaming app separately.

Choose a country in IPVanish, connect, then open your streaming app. The service sees the VPN server’s IP location instead of your usual one. That can help you access location-dependent services where your subscription and the provider’s rules allow it, while encrypting traffic between your device and the VPN server.
