# Work with channels

Use channels to group multiple [screens](/ixm-aqua/docs/screens) into a single target, making it easy to broadcast content and centrally manage screen formats across them.

### How to use channels

- Only one channel can be used per screen.
- If you remove a channel with a screen format from a screen, the screen format remains unchanged.
- If you assign a channel to multiple screens, previously assigned channels will be replaced.

> [!NOTE]
> Note
> 
> Be careful when changing channels, as this will affect not only all screens in the channel, but also your broadcasts.

## Access channels

To access your channels, perform the following steps:

1. In the sidebar, click **Settings**.
2. Switch to the **Channels** tab.
