Paramount+

Paramount+ combines CBS shows, live sports and Paramount originals in one app. Its smart TV apps are best known for crash-on-open and buffering complaints, and Paramount's own troubleshooting sequence — close, restart, update, reinstall — is the way to work through them.

Frequently asked questions

How many devices can stream Paramount+ at the same time?+

Up to three concurrent streams per account, and the limit is the same on every plan. You can be signed in on as many devices as you like — only three of them can play video at once.

The Paramount+ app crashes when I open it on my TV — what should I try?+

Paramount's help center walks through the standard sequence: fully close and reopen the app, restart the streaming device or TV, check for app and system software updates, and reinstall the app if the crash continues. It's also worth confirming the service itself isn't down before digging deeper.
