Checkout Periods:
Length of checkout varies depending on the title. Movies generally have a loan period of 48-72 hours. Seasons of TV shows generally have a loan period of 7 to 21 days. Items return automatically at the end of the loan period.
Holds:
Not needed! You can stream a title even if someone else has it checked out.
Mobile and TV Apps:
Kanopy mobile apps are available for iOS, Android, and Amazon Fire tablets. Kanopy apps are available for most smart TV devices, including Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV & Airplay, Chromecast, Android TV, and Samsung TV.
Offline Viewing?
No. You’ll need an Internet connection when watching a streaming video. Streaming videos can consume a lot of data, so we recommend streaming over a Wi-Fi or cabled Internet connection.
Number of Checkouts:
30 tickets per month. The number of tickets required to view a film depends on the type of video selected. For instance, a feature film generally takes 2 or 3 tickets, while a short video might take just 1, and a full season of a TV series might take 5. Tickets replenish each calendar month, not when you return an item. In addition, you can have an unlimited number of plays in Kanopy Kids!
