Pluto TV full review
Pluto TV is a free, safe and legal streaming service owned by Paramount. It gives you hundreds of live TV channels and thousands of on-demand movies and TV shows without any subscription fee. There is no payment required and no credit card needed. Short commercial breaks keep the service free.
The live TV section works like a traditional cable guide, with channels for news, sports, movies, comedy, classic TV, westerns, sci-fi, true crime and more. The on-demand library covers genres such as action, anime, classics, documentary, drama, horror and kids & family. Popular titles range from sitcoms like I Love Lucy and The Andy Griffith Show to series like Arrow, The 100 and Burn Notice, and hit movies such as Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, Pretty Woman and Bruce Almighty.
You can start watching instantly in a web browser such as Chrome or Safari, or download the Pluto TV app on Android, iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, Chromecast, Amazon Fire TV, Roku, Samsung, LG, Sony and Vizio smart TVs, PlayStation, Xbox and Xfinity. Creating a free profile lets you sync favorite channels and your Watch List, and resume where you left off on other devices.
Support is provided through the online Help Center and Pluto TV's social media channels.
Verdict: Pluto TV is one of the best free streaming services for anyone who wants live TV and a big on-demand library without paying a cent. The ads and focus on older content are the main trade-offs. Our rating: 4.0/5.
