PeacockTV is NBCUniversal’s streaming service, offering movies, series, news, and live sports that you can watch directly through the Peacock app on compatible Samsung Smart TVs.
On Samsung, peacocktv.com tv/samsung runs as a native app inside the Smart Hub, so you install it from the builtin Apps store and then sign in with your Peacock account to start streaming.
Checking Samsung TV Compatibility
PeacockTV is officially supported on Samsung Smart TVs from around 2017 onward that run Samsung’s Tizen operating system and have access to the Samsung Apps store.
If you cannot find Peacock in the Apps section when you search, the TV may be an older, unsupported model, or the region settings and firmware may need updating.
How to Install PeacockTV from Samsung Smart Hub
To install PeacockTV, press the Home button on your Samsung remote, navigate to Apps, select the Search icon, type “Peacock,” then choose the Peacock app and select Install.
After installation, the app appears in your Apps list and can also be added to the home row so you can open PeacockTV quickly from the main Samsung TV screen.

Creating or Signing In to a Peacock Account
Before watching on Samsung, you need a Peacock account, which can be created online by visiting the Peacock website, entering your email address, and choosing a subscription tier.
Once the app is installed on the TV, you can either sign in with an existing account or follow the onscreen prompt to create one, then your subscription and profiles sync automatically to the Samsung app.
Activating PeacockTV with a Code on Samsung
When you open PeacockTV on your Samsung set and choose to sign in on the TV, the app may show a sixdigit activation code along with a web address such as peacocktv.com/tv or peacocktv.com/tv/samsung.
On a phone or computer, go to the activation URL, log into your Peacock account, and enter the code; after submitting it, the Samsung app refreshes and signs in without needing to type your password on the TV.
Basic Troubleshooting if PeacockTV Is Missing
If PeacockTV does not appear in the search results, check the TV’s model year and ensure it is a smart model from 2017 or later with current firmware installed via Settings → Support → Software Update → Update Now.
If the TV is too old or still cannot install PeacockTV, you can connect an external streaming device such as a Roku, Fire TV Stick, or similar HDMI streaming stick and install the Peacock app on that device instead.

Fixing Common PeacockTV Issues on Samsung
When PeacockTV crashes or freezes, deleting and reinstalling the app from the Apps → Settings menu often clears corrupted data and restores smooth playback.
If streaming problems persist, check your internet connection and router, then confirm you are using the latest TV firmware, as Samsung updates frequently improve app performance and compatibility for services like Peacock.
Enhancing Your PeacockTV Experience on Samsung
After setup, you can pin PeacockTV to the first row of the home screen from the Apps area so it is accessible with fewer remote presses every time you turn on the TV.
Keeping both the Samsung TV software and the Peacock app updated ensures access to new features, better stability, and the best available streaming quality for movies, shows, and live events.
