After the first day of LaLiga, in which DAZN was released as one of the two platforms on which the games are broadcast every weekend, the collapse of its servers and the low quality of the service forced a provisional decision to be made by which Movistar and Orange customers would see these channels as part of their own applications in order to free up this saturation a little and so that the rest of the OTT sports customers could have better quality.
In the end, the “provisional” has lasted practically half the League (World Cup in between), but Today January 16, 2023 DAZN takes back the reins of its own broadcasts on mobile devices.
You need DAZN again to see all the football
The emergency decision that the DAZN LaLiga channels were part of the applications of Movistar Plus+ y Orange TV Probably they could like their clients, who had at their fingertips the entire football offer in a single app, but for the operators this was causing extra costs due to DAZN’s negligence, so they are sure to celebrate that everything returns to the initial plan prior to the start of the 2022/2023 season.
Now you will need to create or activate a DAZN account with which you will not be able to see DAZN on the rest of compatible devices as long as you don’t have the possibility of watching their channels on your own Movistar or Orange decoder.
Activate your account in Movistar and Orange
If you are a Movistar Plus+ customer, you will have several ways to activate your DAZN account in Movistar and log in to your own app with these credentials. The first method is from the DAZN app on the UHD decoder. In this case, you would only have to enter the email you want to use to create the DAZN account and access the service directly. Next, you will receive an email to the account you have indicated, which will give you the option to change the password and thus access the DAZN application on the rest of the compatible devices.
Another way, also from the Movistar deco, is from the DAZN 1-4 linear channels or the Settings section of the device menu. In either case you can scan the QR shown on the screen or access the web, if requested, where you must enter your Mi Movistar app passwords and, once identified, enter the email and password you want to use for DAZN.
As for Orange customers, you can do it easily via WhatsApp by writing to 653850085. You will see a message that says, “Activate DAZN”, send that message to start a conversation and the wizard will generate a fully personalized activation page for you. Enter that page and activate your account by entering the username (email) and password that you want to use to watch football matches from the DAZN app and that’s it.
