The fastest way to sign out depends on what you're using
To sign out of Paramount Plus, go to your account settings and select the sign-out option. The exact steps differ slightly between web browsers, phones, tablets, and streaming devices, but the process takes less than a minute on any of them. If you're signing out because you're done watching for the day, a straightforward logout works. If you're selling or giving away a device, you may want to sign out of all active sessions at once instead — Paramount Plus lets you do that from your account page.
Signing out removes your login from that specific device, but your subscription stays active and your watch history remains saved to your account. You'll be able to sign back in anytime on any device using the same email and password.
Key Takeaways
- On the Paramount Plus website or app, tap your profile icon in the top right corner, then select "Sign Out" or "Log Out".
- On streaming devices like Roku, Fire TV, or Apple TV, go to Settings within the app, find Account or Profile, and choose Sign Out.
- You can sign out of all devices at once by logging into your account on a web browser, going to Account Settings, and selecting "Sign Out of All Devices".
- Signing out on a shared device removes your profile and watch history from that device, but does not cancel your subscription.
Signing out on a web browser or computer
Open Paramount Plus in your web browser and look for your profile icon or account menu in the top right corner of the screen. Click or tap it — you'll see a dropdown menu with several options. Select "Sign Out" or "Log Out" (the exact wording varies slightly). Your browser will return to the Paramount Plus home page, and you'll be logged out.
If you don't see a profile icon, you may already be signed out. Some browsers also cache your login information, so clearing your browser cookies and cache will fully remove any stored login data if you're concerned about privacy on a shared computer.
Signing out on the Paramount Plus mobile app
Open the Paramount Plus app on your phone or tablet and tap the profile icon, usually located in the bottom right corner of the screen. On some versions of the app, it may be in the top right instead. Tap "Account" or "Settings," then look for "Sign Out" or "Log Out" and tap it.
After you sign out, the app will return to the login screen. You can delete the app from your device afterward if you want, but signing out is sufficient to remove your account access. The next person to open the app will see the login screen and will need your email and password to access your account.
Signing out on Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV, and other streaming devices
The process varies slightly by device, but the general path is the same. Open the Paramount Plus app on your streaming device and navigate to the Settings menu within the app — this is usually found at the bottom of the screen or in a gear icon. Look for "Account," "Profile," or "Sign Out."
On Roku, go to Settings in the app, then select "Sign Out." On Amazon Fire TV, open the app menu (usually by pressing the menu button on your remote), go to Settings, then Account, then Sign Out. On Apple TV, tap the profile icon at the top of the screen, then select "Sign Out." After signing out, the app will return to the login screen on your next visit.
Signing out of all devices at the same time
If you want to sign out of Paramount Plus on every device where you're logged in — for example, if you're concerned about account security or you're selling a device — you can do this from your account settings on a web browser. Go to paramountplus.com, sign in with your email and password, and click your profile icon in the top right corner.
Select "Account Settings" or "Settings," then look for an option called "Sign Out of All Devices," "Active Sessions," or "Devices." Click it, and Paramount Plus will when ready sign you out everywhere. You'll need to sign back in on any device you want to use going forward. This action does not cancel your subscription — it only removes your login from all devices.
What happens after you sign out
Once you sign out, your watch history, saved shows, and profile preferences remain stored in your Paramount Plus account. The next time you sign back in on any device, you'll see the same watchlist and recommendations you had before. Signing out does not delete your account or cancel your subscription.
If you're signing out on a device you share with others, they will no longer see your profile or watch history on that device. However, they can create their own profile on the same subscription if Paramount Plus allows multiple profiles under your plan — check your subscription details to see how many profiles you can have.
Troubleshooting if sign out isn't working
If the sign-out button doesn't appear or doesn't work, try closing the app completely and reopening it. On phones, swipe up from the bottom of the screen (iPhone) or press the back button twice (Android), then reopen it. On streaming devices, unplug the device for 30 seconds, plug it back in, and try again.
If you still can't sign out, try signing in to your account on a web browser and using the "Sign Out of All Devices" option instead. This will log you out everywhere, and you can then sign back in on the device that was giving you trouble. If the problem continues, contact Paramount Plus support through the app or website — they can help troubleshoot account access issues.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does signing out cancel my Paramount Plus subscription?
No. Signing out only removes your login from that device. Your subscription remains active and will continue to charge your payment method. You can sign back in anytime on any device using the same email and password.
Will my watch history disappear if I sign out?
No. Your watch history, saved shows, and profile settings are stored in your Paramount Plus account, not on the device. When you sign back in, you'll see everything exactly as you left it.
Can I sign out of just one device without signing out everywhere?
Yes. Sign out directly on that device using the steps above. This removes your login from only that device. You'll remain signed in on all other devices. Use "Sign Out of All Devices" only if you want to log out everywhere at once.
What should I do if I'm giving away or selling a device?
Sign out of your Paramount Plus account on that device before handing it over. If you want to be extra careful, sign into your account on a web browser and use "Sign Out of All Devices" to make sure no one else can access your account. You can then sign back in on your own devices.
How do I sign out if I forgot my password?
If you're already signed in, you don't need your password — just use the sign-out button on the device. If you're locked out of your account entirely, go to paramountplus.com, click "Sign In," then select "Forgot Password" and follow the steps to reset it using your email address.
