The spectrum app gives you access to TV channels, movies, and music that are not available on your wireless router. You can use both apps together to get more than one wireless network connection at a time.
There is a limit of three devices per account. However, if you have an older Roku device that does not support multiple accounts, you can still watch TV channels or stream movies, and listen to music through the WiFi app. You will need to update your Roku device to enjoy this feature.

Why am I not able to connect to the spectrum app on my firestick?
The spectrum app may not be able to connect to our servers because of some reasons like you are using an android device, you are using a phone that is not compatible with the spectrum, you have uninstalled the app or you have updated the app. To fix this issue:
Make sure your phone is running on Android 5.0 or above. You can check this by going to Settings > About Device > System Updates and making sure your phone is running on Android 5.0 or above.
Make sure your phone has an internet connection at all times (Wi-Fi or data). If you do not have an internet connection, then please wait for some time and try again to connect to the spectrum app again.
If it still does not work, then please try deleting the app from your phone and reinstalling it from the Google Play Store (If your phone is rooted, then make sure to first backup all of your apps and data before uninstalling and reinstalling).
Please also ensure that you do not have any custom ROM installed on your phone which may be causing this issue. If after following all of these steps above, the spectrum app still does not work on your firestick, then please let them know at https://www.spectrum.com/contact-spectrum so they can help you further.
