Most TiVo devices are built upon a closed platform, which limits their functionality. However, TiVo started opening up to third-party apps just recently - through Android TV, which powers its TiVo Stream 4K device. With that said, let’s take a close look at how to get Paramount Plus on TiVo, and we'll also make sure to answer your every question along the way.

Which TiVo Devices Work With Paramount Plus? 

Officially, TiVo isn’t supported by Paramount Plus (which means that Paramount+ doesn't work on most TiVo devices). However, you should know that Paramount Plus offers an Android TV app, which is where the TiVo Stream 4K comes into play.

The TiVo Stream 4K is powered by Android TV, giving you access to thousands of apps, such as Netflix, Prime Video, Disney Plus, HBO Max - and, of course, Paramount Plus is there as well.

How to Get Paramount Plus on TiVo

If you’re a proud owner of TiVo's Stream 4K, here’s how to check whether Paramount Plus is available for your device. Go through the following steps. 

Can You Cast Paramount Plus via Chromecast on TiVo?

Can You Watch Paramount Plus in 4K on TiVo?

We'll also remind you that 4K content is part of Paramount Plus' Premium plan, priced at $9.99 per month. That plan also comes free of ads and allows you to download content for offline viewing (available on select platforms).

Can You Get Paramount+ for Free on TiVo?

At the moment, you can take advantage of Paramount Plus' free trial to watch it for free. More precisely, you'll get a 7-day trial that imposes no limitations on the streaming service.

Keep in mind that Paramount Plus' trial is available for new subscribers only. Also, you'll need to provide your payment information while signing up. That means you'll be charged once your trial ends - if you don't cancel your subscription on time.
