Subscribed to Paramount Plus through the iOS app. TV OS app is working fine after using "Restore Purchases". However, how do I sign in and use this subscription on the webpage, or the Mac OS TV app? Both the webpage and the Mac OS app ask for a password, which is not saved on Safari for some reason (I'm assuming, if there is a password, it is saved somewhere else in the iOS universe?
Mac mini, macOS 14.1

Thanks for the comment. In the world of this app, "managing" the subscription is different from "make a subscription made on iOS work on your computer". So, alas, the question answered at that link doesn't help in this case.
Mentions using their app to get a code for the sign-in:
Or… Ask Paramount+ Support: paramountplus.com/contactus
PS: I've requested this thread be moved to the App Store community.
This forum is for Macs with the Mac OS. Please repost on the appropriate forum for iOS devices.
Thank you for the clarification. Keep in mind that a Mac's OS is completely different from the iOS used in iPhones and iMacs. This means that you will have do download the Mac version of the app. However, many apps will then require you to reregister it on the Mac to use it there. Some vendors will charge you for the second download. It's best to address this question directly to the vendor. I hope this is helpful.

Thanks for the reply. My question is how to get a subscription purchased on the iPad (in-app) to transfer over to the Mac, either on Safari or on the Mac TV app.
Does this help: https://help.paramountplus.com/s/article/PD-How-can-I-manage-my-Paramount-subscription
Thanks again. After fiddling for 20 minutes and restarting the computer a few times, my conclusion is that Apple intends for one to use one's subscriptions in the TV app (on Mac OS, I'm talking about) but that there is still some static about the TV app recognizing that you have subscriptions. I signed in and out of my Apple ID on the TV app a few times but it makes no difference. The TV app still wants me to sign up for a new subscription, even though my Paramount subscription is listed in my Apple ID account. Oh well, no biggie, I'll just watch on iPad. It's not worth my time to solve what seems clearly to be an Apple/Paramount conmunication issue.

Thanks. Doesn't work for me for some reason. There is no "on the web" choice on the Sign In page that I get on paramountplus.com, contrary to what is stated on that web page. As I said, no big deal. I'll just skip watching on the computer...
