By Novak Bozovic / April 25, 2022

Paramount+ is widely available on Amazon’s Fire OS-powered devices, bringing movies, sports content, original programming, and more. Many of you probably wonder how to get Paramount Plus on Firestick and Fire TV devices, and we’re here to answer all your questions. So, here’s everything that you need to know. 

What Fire TV Devices Work With Paramount Plus?

Paramount+ works on any Fire OS device that lets you access Amazon’s App Store. That means any Fire OS media streaming device made in the last couple of years should work fine.

That applies to Amazon’s Fire TV Stick (Lite, HD, 4K, and 4K Max), Fire TV Cube, and even Fire TV Edition TVs made by Insignia, Toshiba, Pioneer, and more.

How to Get Paramount Plus on a Firestick

It doesn't come as a surprise to know that Paramount+ offers a native Fire OS app. Therefore, you're only minutes away from accessing this streaming service. Here’s how that is done: 

Tip

You can also install Paramount+ remotely from Amazon's website. Use the provided link to get to the Paramount+ app on Amazon, log in to your account, and get the app. It will then install remotely on any Fire TV devices associated with your Amazon account.

Has Paramount+ Replaced 'CBS All Access?' Should You Do Anything to Transition? 

Yes, Paramount Plus has replaced CBS All Access – which is no longer available. That means the CBS All Access app no longer works on Fire OS devices. All of its content has transitioned to Paramount Plus, which offers a wide selection of new content as well. 

You should also know that if you’ve been a subscriber to CBS All Access, your account has been automatically transferred to Paramount Plus. Therefore, feel free to use your old credentials when logging into Paramount Plus.

Can I Stream Paramount Plus in 4K & HDR on a Fire TV Stick? 

Yes, Paramount Plus brings a selection of 4K and HDR content. In terms of Fire OS devices, you need a device that can stream video in up to 4K, such as the Fire TV Stick 4K, for example.

Also, keep in mind that 4K content is available only via Paramount Plus' Premium plan, priced at $9.99 per month. That plan also eliminates advertisements and gives you the ability to download content for offline viewing.

Is There a Way to Get Paramount+ for Free on a Firestick? 

Yes, there is a way to get Paramount+ for free on your Firestick. However, we're talking about Paramount Plus' trial here, which lasts for 7 days. During your trial, you'll get full access to the streaming network without any limitations whatsoever.

Also, know that your payment details are needed when subscribing to Paramount Plus. Still, you won't be charged before your 7-day trial ends. And if you cancel on time (if you wish to do so, of course), you won't be charged.
