Heard about Hubbl but you're not quite clear on the full picture? No problem! We've compiled a handy guide to some of the common myths about it – and then we bust 'em.

πŸ€” Myth #1: "Hubbl is an ongoing cost."

First things first – Hubbl is about consolidating your streaming into one convenient spot. But it's not about adding additional costs to your overall subscriptions.

So what's the real story? Check out the explainer below to find out.

πŸ”Ž Myth Busted! No – it's a one-off device fee!

The Hubbl small device is a one-off cost. You can log in with your existing streaming subscriptions, and access them all in one spot.

You can then choose to bill eligible streaming services through Hubbl, but only if you want to (more on that in a moment, though).

Even better – until 30 June it's actually on sale for 20% off!

At the moment, you can purchase the Hubbl small device for $79.20, down from the usual $99.

πŸ€” Myth #2: "My smart TV can already do everything Hubbl can."

Now, this myth we kind of understand. Smart TVs are pretty zippy these days and they do have a lot of functionality. But Hubbl can supplement your existing smart TV (if you have one) and even go beyond it!

πŸ”Ž Myth Busted! Hubbl gives you more options than a smart TV

Aside from being able to consolidate your subscriptions, Hubbl has a number of other features too.

In fact, when you bill your subscriptions with Hubbl, you can actually Stack & Save on eligible streaming services. Depending on how many streaming services you subscribe to, this can save you up to $15 per month.

Hubbl provides non-aerial access to free-to-air TV, and unified voice or text search – so it's much easier to find the show or movie you're looking for, no matter what service it's on. Hubbl also lets you pick up right where you left off (no matter which service you're watching on) with a single "continue watching" rail on your home screen.

Single View allows you to see your billing information for eligible subscriptions billed through Hubbl in one sport, so you can easily keep track of what subscriptions you're paying for.


πŸ€” Myth #3: "Hubbl setup is time-consuming and overcomplicated."

Given the amount of tech devices we wrangle every day, it's understandable that people have concerns about having another. But Hubbl isn't complicated at all – quite the opposite, in fact.

πŸ”Ž Myth Busted! Setup takes less than 5 minutes

Hubbl is just a small device that plugs into your TV's HDMI port and a power point, and is then used with the included remote.

Once connected to the internet, you just need to set up your account and you'll be ready to go. In fact, the whole process can take less than 5 minutes. Which isn't much time at all when you think about how much viewing enjoyment you've got ahead of you.


πŸ€” Myth #4: "Hubbl doesn't have the variety I need."

The good news is that this definitely isn't the case. Hubbl has quite a bit more variety than you might have realised. Read on to learn more...

πŸ”Ž Myth Busted! Hubbl has a huge amount of content!

πŸ€” Myth #5: "Hubbl is just for TV shows and movies."

We get itβ€”keeping up with the latest TV shows or recent movie releases isn't for everyone. But with Hubbl, there are plenty of other great things to watch!
