On what device is this happening?


  • Subscriptions started inside the Apple TV app have to be viewed inside the Apple TV app. Subscriptions to Apple TV app Channels aren’t valid outside the Apple TV app. Access is granted based on the recognized subscription on your Apple ID account. No manual sign-in applies.
  • Access to third party streaming services in their own separate app on iPhone/iPad/Apple TV box, started in-app on such Apple device, requires a different type of subscription, and requires viewing in that app on an Apple device. Access is granted based on the recognized subscription on your Apple ID account. No manual sign-in applies.
  • Access to third party streaming services when subscribed directly with them, is the only way to sign in with credentials in their own separate app (or on the web), on any brand device.

These subscriptions are not exchangeable, as they have different terms and conditions, different perks and limitations. Choose a subscription type that best suits your viewing habits, and stick with that.

As a special service, Paramount+ allows Apple TV app Channel subscribers to get an additional Paramount+ account for use outside the Apple TV app, by confirming the subscription with them. This is effectively a one-way crossover.
