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

On a phone or tablet, open Paramount Plus, tap your profile icon in the bottom right corner, scroll down, and tap Log Out. On a web browser, click your profile icon in the top right, then select Log Out. On a TV app (Roku, Apple TV, Fire Stick, or Samsung TV), go to Settings or your profile menu and look for Sign Out or Log Out — the exact wording and location changes by device, but it's always in the account section.

If you're logging out because you're selling or giving away a device, or because someone else is using it, logging out removes your account from that device only. Your account itself stays active, and you can log back in anytime on any other device. If you want to fully close your Paramount Plus account instead, that's a separate step done through your account settings on the website.

Key Takeaways

  • On phones and tablets, tap your profile icon and select Log Out from the menu.
  • On a web browser, click your profile icon in the top right corner and choose Log Out.
  • On TV apps, go to Settings or your profile section and look for Sign Out or Log Out.
  • Logging out on one device does not affect your account on other devices — you stay logged in everywhere else.
  • If you want to end your subscription entirely, you must cancel your plan through account settings on the website.

Logging out on iPhone, iPad, or Android

Open the Paramount Plus app and look for your profile icon. On most phones, this is a circle or silhouette in the bottom right corner of the screen. Tap it once.

Scroll down through the menu that appears. You'll see options like Account, Settings, and other choices. Keep scrolling until you see Log Out at the bottom. Tap it, and the app will ask you to confirm. Select Log Out again, and you're done. The next time someone opens the app on that phone, they'll see the login screen.

Logging out on a computer or laptop

Go to paramountplus.com in your web browser and log in if you're not already. Look for your profile icon — it's usually a small circle or image in the top right corner of the page, next to the search bar.

Click your profile icon once. A dropdown menu will appear with options like Account, Settings, and Log Out. Click Log Out directly. You'll be taken back to the home page, and your session will end. If you close the browser without logging out, you'll still be logged in the next time you visit the site from that computer.

Logging out on Roku, Fire Stick, Apple TV, or Samsung TV

The steps vary slightly by device, but the principle is the same: find your account or profile section, then look for a sign-out option.

On Roku: Open Paramount Plus, press the Options button on your remote (or highlight the app and press Options), select Remove Channel, and confirm. This removes the app entirely. To keep the app but log out, go into the app, find Settings, then Account, and select Sign Out.

On Fire Stick: Open Paramount Plus, go to Settings (usually in the top menu), scroll to Account, and select Sign Out.

On Apple TV: Open Paramount Plus, go to Settings, find Account, and tap Sign Out.

On Samsung TV: Open Paramount Plus, press the menu button on your remote, go to Settings, find Account, and select Sign Out.

What happens after you log out

Once you log out on a device, that device no longer has access to your Paramount Plus account. If someone else picks up the phone, tablet, or remote, they'll see the login screen and won't be able to watch anything unless they enter a username and password.

Logging out on one device does not log you out on other devices. If you're logged into Paramount Plus on your phone, your laptop, and your TV, logging out on your phone leaves you logged in on the laptop and TV. You have to log out separately on each device if that's what you want.

Your account itself remains active and your subscription continues. You can log back in on the same device or any new device whenever you want, as long as your subscription is still current.

Logging out remotely from your account settings

If you've lost a device or want to log out of all devices at once, you can do this from the Paramount Plus website. Go to paramountplus.com, log in, click your profile icon, and select Account. Look for a section called Devices, Active Sessions, or Sign Out Everywhere — the exact name varies.

From this page, you can see which devices are currently logged in and remove them individually or all at once. This is useful if you've given away a device and forgot to log out, or if you think someone else has access to your account. After you sign out remotely, you'll need to log back in on any device you want to use.

Canceling your subscription instead of just logging out

If you want to stop paying for Paramount Plus entirely, logging out is not enough — you need to cancel your subscription. Log in on the website, go to Account, find Subscription or Billing, and look for a Cancel Subscription button. Follow the prompts to confirm cancellation. Your access will end at the end of your current billing cycle, not when ready.

If you cancel through the website and then log out, you won't be able to log back in once your subscription ends. If you only log out without canceling, your subscription will continue to charge you, and you can log back in anytime.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will logging out delete my watchlist or viewing history?

No. Your watchlist, viewing history, and all your account settings are stored on Paramount Plus's servers, not on the device. When you log back in on any device, everything will be there exactly as you left it.

Can I log out of Paramount Plus on someone else's device without their password?

Not directly. You can log out of that specific device by going into the app's settings and selecting Sign Out or Log Out, but you'll need to be able to access the device itself. If you don't have access to the device, you can log out remotely through your account settings on the website under Devices or Active Sessions.

What if I log out and then forget my password?

Go to the Paramount Plus login page, click Forgot Password, enter your email address, and follow the link sent to your inbox to reset it. You don't need to remember your old password to create a new one.

Does logging out on my phone log me out on my TV?

No. Each device is logged in separately. You have to log out on each device individually if you want to remove your account from all of them.

If I log out, will my family members still be able to watch?

Only if they're logged in on a different device. Logging out on your phone won't affect anyone watching on a TV or laptop. If you want to prevent everyone from watching, you'd need to cancel the subscription itself.
