So for us streaming cable cutters…..

In the same household, yes. I went to set up the "family sharing" and it said the devices had to be in the same household on th same wifi network so I didn't even bother finishing setting it up for my mom.

Location requirements​

Location requirements work the same if you're sharing your YouTube TV membership with a family group. The family manager sets the home area, and each family member must primarily live in the same household.
Family group members need to periodically use YouTube TV in your home location to keep access. Otherwise, the family manager will have to change the home location. If the family manager can't change the home location, family group members must get an individual membership.
Note: If you're using YouTube TV while traveling, you'll get access to certain programs based on your location. Learn more about using YouTube TV while traveling.

​

Manage your home area or current location for YouTube TV​

What you can watch and record on YouTube TV is based on your home area. When you sign up for YouTube TV, we'll ask you to share your home zip code. We may also ask you to verify your area via your device location permissions. This is to make sure you get the right networks in your location.
Keep in mind:

• You can only change your home area twice per year. You have to be physically in your new home area to update your home area in YouTube TV.
• If you travel outside of your home area, you can view local programs in the location you travel to, but you can’t record anything outside of your home area. When you travel outside of your home area, you can’t watch local networks airing in your home area.
• If you're a frequent traveler, make sure to use YouTube TV at least once every 3 months in your home area. This check in ensures you will continue to get the correct local networks.

I wonder sometimes if the app just runs better on some devices. I never have issues with ESPN on Roku other than slow loads occasionally, but it can be like a visit to the dentist on a Firestick.

Yeah I have AppleTV and the app is hit or miss on there unfortunately but I've run it from my phone before and it's been perfect.

Thank you for your reply but if I have YTTV do I have access to SECN + on the ESPN app?. Is the game being shown on SECN+ and ESPN + on the ESPN app?

1. Is SECN+ part of YTTV?
2. Is ESPN+ part if YTTV?

Sorry for the confusion as I just signed up for YTTV.

ESPN+ is not part of YTTV or any other cable provider. Its a subscription you buy directly from ESPN and stream it through their app.
