Basics
- Kanopy films are available to you for 48 or 72 hours after you press play (depending on the film); and for 3-7 days for episodic content (the longer the series, the longer you have to watch it!)
- You'll have 24 "tickets" to spend on content per month. The number of tickets a film/series will take is clearly marked for each film/series.
- "Kanopy Kids" is unlimited access and will not consume any tickets.
- Tickets reset on the 1st of the month.
- In addition to watching in browser on your computer, you can stream Kanopy with Roku, iOS, Apple TV, Chromecast, and Android devices. For more information, please see Kanopy's Mobile & TV Apps support page.
- Stream films instantly. No need to wait on a holds list.
- Films will automatically "return" themselves at the end of the loan period. If you play a film again after the loan period ends, it will consume more tickets.
