Identify which service should remember the position
Freely’s continue-watching FAQ says its platform does not currently let you switch devices and carry on a programme. It separately points out that individual player apps may support device linking. A shared Freely interface therefore should not be read as a universal account that synchronises every live channel and every player’s viewing position between televisions.
Note the actual app and episode
Before moving rooms, record the programme, episode and the player or live route in use. If the second device opens a different edition or starts a live broadcast, it is not necessarily attempting to resume the same on-demand item. A title alone can be too broad when a series has repeats, multiple seasons or a separately listed accessible presentation.
Use a player feature only within its documented scope
If the broadcaster supports account-based progress, inspect that player’s own instructions and confirm the intended account on both devices. Do not infer the feature from another app that happens to remember its position. The same household television can host several independently managed services, each with different sign-in and playback behaviour.
Make a precise follow-up request
A useful report distinguishes wanting Freely-wide handoff from a specific player failing to save progress it says it supports. Name the devices and episode without sharing passwords or private account screenshots. Until the relevant feature is established, keep a simple private note of the stopping point. That avoids turning an unsupported platform expectation into repeated reinstalls or unnecessary account recovery attempts.
Questions, answered
Does Freely promise one resume position shared across all devices?
Its current FAQ says the platform does not provide that cross-device continuation.
Can an individual player have its own linking feature?
Yes. Freely directs viewers to the player’s own documentation for that separate capability.
