Sign in with your email and password
To log in to Paramount Plus, go to the Paramount Plus website or open the app on your device, then enter the email address and password you used when you created your account. If you are signing in on a web browser, you will see a "Log In" button in the top right corner of the homepage. Tap or click it, type your email, enter your password, and select "Sign In".
On a phone or tablet app, the login screen appears when you first open the app if you are not already signed in. Enter your credentials the same way — email first, then password. The app will keep you logged in unless you manually sign out, so you typically only do this once per device.
If you have forgotten your password, select the "Forgot Password?" link on the login screen. Paramount Plus will send a password reset link to the email address associated with your account. Check your inbox (and spam folder) for an email from Paramount. Click the link in that email, create a new password, and then log in with your new credentials.
Key Takeaways
- Log in on the website by clicking "Log In" in the top right, or open the app and enter your email and password on the login screen.
- Your password must be at least 6 characters long and can include letters, numbers, and symbols.
- If you forget your password, use the "Forgot Password?" link to reset it via email within a few minutes.
- You can sign in on up to four devices at the same time with one account, though only one stream can play at a time on the free plan.
- If login fails, clear your browser cache, update your app, or restart your device before trying again.
Logging in on a web browser
Open your web browser and go to paramountplus.com. In the top right corner, you will see a "Log In" button. Click it to open the login form. Type the email address associated with your Paramount Plus account into the first field, then type your password into the second field. Click "Sign In" to proceed.
Once you are signed in, your account name will appear in the top right corner instead of the "Log In" button. You will stay logged in on that browser until you manually sign out or clear your browser's cookies and cached data. If you use a shared computer, always sign out when you are finished by clicking your account name and selecting "Sign Out".
Logging in on the mobile app
read the Paramount Plus app from the Apple App Store (for iPhone and iPad) or Google Play Store (for Android phones and tablets). Open the app after installation. If you are not already signed in, the login screen will appear automatically. Enter your email address in the first field and your password in the second field, then tap "Sign In".
The app will remember your login information and keep you signed in each time you open it. If you want to sign out, open the app menu (usually three horizontal lines or dots in the top left or bottom right), scroll to find "Account" or "Settings", and select "Sign Out". You will need to log back in the next time you open the app.
Logging in on smart TVs and streaming devices
On devices like Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV, Google TV, or Samsung Smart TV, open the Paramount Plus app. The app will show a login screen with a code or a prompt to visit a website. If you see a code, write it down. If you see a website URL, note that too.
On your phone or computer, go to the website shown on your TV screen (or visit paramountplus.com/set up if a code was displayed). Enter the code from your TV into the website, then log in with your email and password. Your TV will automatically sign in within a few seconds. You will not need to enter your password directly on the TV itself.
Troubleshooting login problems
If your login fails, first check that you are using the correct email address and password. Passwords are case-sensitive, so make sure the capitalization matches exactly. If you are still unable to log in, try clearing your browser's cache and cookies, then attempt to log in again. On mobile apps, try uninstalling and reinstalling the app, or restart your phone.
If you see an error message saying your account is not found, verify that you are using the email address you signed up with — you may have used a different email than you remember. If you created your account through a third-party service like Facebook or Google, you must log in using that same method, not with a separate Paramount Plus password.
If you are locked out after multiple failed attempts, wait 15 to 30 minutes before trying again. Paramount Plus temporarily blocks login attempts after several failures to protect your account. If problems continue, check your internet connection, make sure your app or browser is up to date, and try logging in on a different device to see if the issue is specific to one device.
Managing multiple devices and sign-outs
You can sign in to Paramount Plus on up to four devices at the same time with a single account. However, only one video stream can play at a time on the free plan. If you try to play video on a second device while a stream is already playing, the first stream will stop.
To sign out on a specific device, open the app or website, click your account name or menu, and select "Sign Out". You will be logged out only on that device; you will remain logged in on your other devices. If you want to sign out on all devices at once, log in to your account on paramountplus.com, go to "Account Settings", find "Devices and Sign-Outs", and select "Sign Out Everywhere".
Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do if I do not remember which email I used to create my account?
Check your email inbox for a welcome message from Paramount Plus sent when you first signed up. That email will show the address associated with your account. If you cannot find it, try logging in with your most commonly used email addresses. If none work, use the "Forgot Password?" link — Paramount Plus will tell you if an email address is not connected to an account.
Can I log in with my Facebook or Google account instead of a password?
Yes. If you originally created your Paramount Plus account by signing up through Facebook or Google, you must log in using that same method. On the login screen, look for "Sign In with Facebook" or "Sign In with Google" buttons below the email and password fields. Click the one you used during signup, and you will be logged in without entering a separate password.
Why does my login work on my phone but not on my computer?
This usually means your browser needs an update or your cache is outdated. Try clearing your browser's cookies and cached data, then log in again. If that does not work, try a different browser like Chrome, Firefox, or Safari. Also check that your internet connection is stable on both devices. If the problem only happens on one device, that device may have a software issue unrelated to Paramount Plus.
What happens if someone else logs into my account?
They can watch your content, but they cannot change your password or account email without knowing your current password. If you suspect someone has logged in without permission, change your password when ready by using the "Forgot Password?" link. Then go to "Account Settings" and select "Sign Out Everywhere" to log out all devices, and sign back in on only your own devices.
