Sign out by going to your account settings
To sign out of Paramount Plus on your TV, open the app and navigate to your account menu — usually found in the top corner or side menu — then select "Sign Out" or "Logout". The exact location depends on which TV device you use, but the process takes less than a minute on most platforms.
After you select "Sign Out", the app will return to the login screen. Your account information will no longer be stored on that device. If someone else uses the TV, they will need to enter their own login details to watch.
Key Takeaways
- Sign out through your account settings menu, not by straightforward closing the app — closing the app leaves you logged in.
- The menu location varies by device: look in the top corner, side menu, or settings depending on whether you use Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV, or another platform.
- After signing out, the app returns to the login screen and your account data is removed from that TV.
- If you cannot find a sign-out option, restart the TV or uninstall and reinstall the app as a last resort.
Where to find the sign-out option on common TV devices
Roku: Open Paramount Plus and look for a menu icon (three horizontal lines) in the top left or top right corner. Select it, scroll down to "Account" or "Settings", and choose "Sign Out".
Amazon Fire TV: Press the menu button on your remote (three horizontal lines). Navigate to "Settings" or "Account", then select "Sign Out" or "Logout".
Apple TV: Open Paramount Plus and go to the top menu. Select your profile icon or account option, then choose "Sign Out".
Samsung, LG, or other smart TVs: Open the app and look for a settings gear icon or menu button. Tap it and find "Account" or "Sign Out" in the menu that appears.
What happens after you sign out
Once you sign out, your login session ends when ready. The TV will no longer remember your password, payment method, or viewing history. The next person to open Paramount Plus on that device will see the login screen and will need to enter their own account details.
Your account itself remains active and unchanged — signing out only removes access from that specific TV. You can still watch on other devices, and your saved shows, watchlist, and profile settings stay the same across all your devices.
Sign out before giving away or selling your TV
If you are selling, donating, or giving away your TV, sign out of Paramount Plus before handing it over. This prevents the new owner from accessing your account, payment information, and viewing history.
Even if you forget to sign out, you can remove the device from your account online. Log into Paramount Plus on a computer or phone, go to your account settings, find "Devices" or "Connected Devices", and select the TV you want to remove. This will sign you out remotely without needing the TV itself.
Troubleshooting when you cannot find the sign-out button
If you cannot locate a sign-out option in the app menu, try restarting the TV completely. Turn it off, wait 30 seconds, and turn it back on. Sometimes the menu does not load correctly on the first try.
If restarting does not help, uninstall the Paramount Plus app and reinstall it fresh. Go to your TV's app store, find Paramount Plus, and select "Remove" or "Uninstall". Then search for it again and install the latest version. When you open it, you will be at the login screen.
If the app crashes when you try to access the menu, check that your TV has the latest software update. Go to your TV's settings, look for "System Update" or "Software Update", and install any available updates. Then try opening Paramount Plus again.
Sign out on multiple TVs at once
If you have Paramount Plus on more than one TV and want to sign out of all of them, you do not have to walk to each device. Log into your account on a computer or phone at paramountplus.com, go to account settings, and look for "Devices" or "Active Devices". You can see all TVs and other devices where you are currently logged in.
Select each device and choose "Sign Out" or "Remove". This will when ready end your session on all those TVs without you having to touch the remote. This is especially useful if you have forgotten which devices still have your account active.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does closing the Paramount Plus app sign me out?
No. Closing the app only stops the video from playing — it does not sign you out. Your account remains logged in on that TV. You must use the sign-out option in the app menu to fully log out.
Can someone else watch my account if I do not sign out?
Yes. If you leave yourself logged in, anyone who opens the Paramount Plus app on that TV can watch your account, see your watchlist, and access your payment information. Always sign out before letting someone else use the TV.
Will signing out delete my watchlist or saved shows?
No. Your watchlist, saved shows, and all account settings are stored on Paramount Plus servers, not on the TV. Signing out only removes your login from that device. Your account data stays the same.
What if I sign out but forget my password?
You can reset your password on the Paramount Plus website or app. Go to the login screen, select "Forgot Password", and follow the steps to reset it using your email address. You will receive a reset link in your email.
Can I sign out of Paramount Plus on my TV from my phone?
Yes. Log into your account on a phone or computer at paramountplus.com, go to account settings, find your devices list, and select the TV you want to sign out of. Choose "Remove" or "Sign Out" and it will end your session on that TV when ready.
