I have subscriptions to both services. However, every time I go to my Apple TV app for either one it says I don't have the service. But if I select a program to watch it lets me watch it....sometimes. Other times it does not. Other services (HBO for example) work fine.
Apple TV 4K, tvOS 15
Apple TV channel subscriptions are separate from the subscriptions done directly with the provider. For the latter, it will integrate with Apple's app but playback will be done in the provider's app. If there is a specific issue with a particular 3rd party app then it would require contacting them to investigate.

If signed up directly with Paramount then using their app is required and any issue would require their assistance.
If signed up using the TV app (Apple TV Channel subscription) then it will work on all devices that use the TV app and any issue can be directed to Apple.
As I noted in my original question it is not working the same way other apps do. If I sign up through Apple it doesn’t work on my phone, if I sign up through Paramount+ it doesn’t work though my Apple TV. Very frustrating.
