Peacock TV
How does the 'Continue Watching' feature work on Peacock TV?
The Continue Watching row saves your progress across different shows, movies, and live events. You can jump from a movie to a soccer game to a sitcom, and it will remember exactly where you left off in each one.
Can I watch live TV on Peacock TV without a cable subscription?
Yes, Peacock offers live channels like NBC News and Premier League matches directly in the app. It feels like having a few basic cable channels on your phone, and you can flip to them effortlessly for background noise or live events.
Why do I keep seeing the same ads over and over on Peacock's free tier?
The free tier relies on ad breaks, and sometimes the same commercial repeats multiple times in a row, which can be annoying during tense moments. Upgrading to Peacock Premium removes most ads for a smoother experience.
Why did my downloaded episodes disappear on Peacock TV?
Downloads can occasionally vanish without warning, which is frustrating if you're counting on offline viewing. To avoid this, try re-downloading episodes closer to when you plan to watch, and make sure your app is updated to the latest version.
How does Peacock TV compare to Netflix for watching NBC shows?
Peacock is better for current NBC content like new SNL episodes or live sports, which often appear on the homepage right away. Netflix has a larger library of originals and movies, but Peacock's free tier makes it a no-brainer if you just want The Office or live TV without paying.
