Agree. I'm watching Paramount Plus from Safari browser (Version 15.2 (17612.3.6.1.6)) on MacBook Pro running macOS Monterey version 12.1 and having the same issue.


I did not have this problem earlier in 2021 with Paramount Plus. I can do full-screen with other sites, like PBS or Disney Plus, but now when I click on the Full Screen option in Screen controls on Paramount Plus, it does not go to Full Screen. I tried the "click on Green expand circle" in Safari (seems like the advice from faith185), but the Safari menu bar stays present and the playback is still not quite full screen.


Paramount Plus works just fine with Full Screen screen control in Chrome browser. I am just not sure what is happening with latest Safari update and the Paramount Plus website playback.

Hi Dewi1,


Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We understand that you would like to view Paramount Plus I full screen on your Mac.


Are you watching Paramount Plus from the website or from an app? If you are using Safari, try entering full screen using the guidance from Use apps in full screen or Split View. If you're unable to view Safari in full screen, what happens when you try?


Have a great day!
