How to watch Paramount Plus on smart TVs

Find out how you can get the most out of your Paramount Plus experience.

Paramount Plus has existed in Australia since August 2021. When it first launched it didn't have great device compatibility for smart TV's but has since grown.

Paramount Plus no longer only has an app for Android TV. You can also now download an app for smart TVs from the following brands Samsung and LG.

So if you have a TV model that runs on Android TV (including GoogleTV), Samsung or LG you can install the Paramount Plus app in minutes and enjoy watching shows and movies on the big screen. If your TV isn't a compatible brand there are plenty of other ways to watch Paramount Plus.
