Plex.tv/link is the official activation page used to connect the Plex app on your Smart TV, streaming device, or gaming console to your Plex account. Instead of typing your email and password on a TV remote, Plex uses a secure activation code that you enter at plex.tv/link using your phone or computer.
plex.tv/link is a secure web page where users enter a short activation code displayed on their TV screen. Once the code is verified, the Plex app on your device is instantly linked to your account.
This method is especially helpful because:
TVs don’t have keyboards

No password typing on shared screens
