connecting 4 tv's to DIRECTV STREAM

I am 1 day into the 2 week trial changing from UVerse to Directv streaming.  I just want to know if I have to have  boxes for my other 3 tv's ... I was told I could place this one in any room and could program the other 3 tv's remotely but HOW?

You can connect the box to any TV, but that means only watching it on one TV at a time (the one that it is connected to).

There is a TV app, if your "smart" TV can download them, but not suggested as has lower performance then an actual box dedicated to streaming apps. So better to use a Roku, Firestick, DIRECTV STREAM box, etc. instead.
