The fastest way to log out depends on what device you're using

Logging out of Paramount Plus takes about 30 seconds on most devices. On phones and tablets, you go to your account settings and tap the sign-out button. On web browsers, you click your profile icon in the top right corner and select "Sign Out". On streaming devices like Roku or Apple TV, the process is similar but the menu names differ slightly — you'll look for "Account" or "Settings" instead of a profile icon.

The reason to log out matters: if you're using a shared device, logging out prevents anyone else from watching your account or changing your settings. If you're selling or giving away a device, logging out is essential before you hand it over. If you think someone has accessed your account without permission, signing out everywhere at once is faster than logging out device by device.

Key Takeaways

  • On phones and tablets, open the Paramount Plus app, tap your profile icon at the bottom, and select "Sign Out".
  • On a web browser, click your profile icon in the top right corner and choose "Sign Out" from the dropdown menu.
  • On streaming devices like Roku, Fire TV, or Apple TV, go to Settings or Account in the app menu and look for a sign-out option.
  • You can sign out of all devices at once by changing your Paramount Plus password, which forces every active session to end when ready.

Logging out on your phone or tablet

Open the Paramount Plus app and look for your profile icon — it's usually a circle with your initials or a generic person symbol at the bottom of the screen. Tap it to open your account menu. You'll see options like "Account Settings", "Watchlist", and "Sign Out". Tap "Sign Out" and the app will return you to the login screen.

If you don't see a profile icon at the bottom, look for a menu icon (three horizontal lines) or a gear icon for settings. Tap that, then scroll down until you find "Sign Out" or "Log Out". The exact wording and location varies slightly between iOS and Android, but the option is always in the account or settings area.

Logging out on a web browser

Go to paramountplus.com and log in if you aren't already. Look for your profile icon in the top right corner of the page — it's a small circle with your initials or a person symbol. Click it to open a dropdown menu. You'll see "Sign Out" near the bottom of that menu. Click it, and you'll be logged out when ready.

If you're on a shared computer and want to make sure you're fully logged out, close the browser window or tab after signing out. This clears any remaining session data. If you use the browser's "Remember me" feature, you may need to clear your cookies for that website to fully remove the stored login information.

Logging out on Roku, Fire TV, and Apple TV

On Roku, open the Paramount Plus app and press the Options button on your remote (it looks like three dots or lines). Scroll down to "Account" or "Settings" and press OK. Look for "Sign Out" or "Log Out" and select it. The app will return to the login screen.

On Amazon Fire TV, open Paramount Plus and look for a menu icon (usually three horizontal lines or dots) in the top left or top right corner. Select it, then scroll to "Account" or "Settings". Choose "Sign Out" and confirm. On Apple TV, open the app, go to the menu, find "Account" or "Settings", and select "Sign Out". The exact button names and menu layouts differ between devices, but the account or settings section is always where the sign-out option lives.

Logging out on other streaming devices

For Samsung Smart TV, LG Smart TV, or other connected TV apps, open Paramount Plus and look for a settings or menu option — usually accessible by pressing a button on your remote or selecting an icon within the app. Navigate to "Account" or "Settings", then find and select "Sign Out".

For gaming consoles like PlayStation or Xbox, open the Paramount Plus app, go to Settings or Account, and select "Sign Out". If you're having trouble finding the option, try pressing the menu button on your controller or looking for a gear icon within the app. Some older devices may not have a sign-out option in the app itself — in that case, you can uninstall and reinstall the app, which will clear your login information.

Signing out of all devices at once

If you want to log out of Paramount Plus on every device you own without visiting each one, change your Paramount Plus password. Go to paramountplus.com on a web browser, click your profile icon in the top right, and select "Account Settings". Find "Password" or "Change Password", enter your current password, then create a new one. This forces every active session to end when ready, and anyone trying to use your account will need the new password.

Changing your password is also the right move if you think someone else has accessed your account. After you change it, check your account settings to see if there are any unfamiliar devices listed, and remove them if you see any. Then you can log back in on your own devices with your new password.

What to do if you're stuck on a device you can't access

If you sold a device, gave it away, or lost it before logging out, you can still remove it from your account. Go to paramountplus.com, click your profile icon, and select "Account Settings". Look for a section called "Devices", "Active Devices", or "Manage Devices". You'll see a list of devices currently logged into your account. Find the one you want to remove and select "Sign Out" or "Remove". This logs that device out without you having to physically access it.

If you don't see a device management section in your account settings, changing your password will sign out all devices, including the one you no longer have access to. After you change your password, log back in on the devices you still own.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will logging out delete my watchlist or viewing history?

No. Your watchlist, viewing history, and saved preferences are tied to your account, not to individual devices. When you log back in on any device, you'll see the same watchlist and history you had before. Logging out only removes the active session on that device.

Do I need to log out if I'm the only one using my device?

Not for security reasons, but some people log out before selling or giving away a device, or if they're troubleshooting a technical problem. If you're keeping the device and you're the only user, logging out is optional.

What if the sign-out button isn't working?

Try closing the app completely and reopening it, then attempt to sign out again. If that doesn't work, uninstall the app and reinstall it — this clears the app's data and will log you out automatically. You can also change your password from a different device, which will sign you out everywhere.

Can I log out of Paramount Plus without opening the app?

Yes, if you have access to a web browser. Go to paramountplus.com, log in, click your profile icon, and select "Sign Out". You can also change your password from the website, which logs you out of all devices at once.

How many devices can I be logged into at the same time?

Paramount Plus allows multiple simultaneous streams depending on your plan, but the exact number varies. You can check how many devices are currently logged into your account by going to Account Settings and looking for the Devices or Active Devices section.
