How to fix Paramount+ not working
Paramount+ is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Your browser tries to reach paramountplus.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Force quit the app and reopen it
A full quit clears most stuck screens. On iPhone or iPad, swipe up from the bottom and flick the Paramount+ card away; on Android, open Settings, go to Apps, find the app, then tap Force stop. Reopen it, because a frozen splash screen or a stream stuck at the logo usually comes back to life once the process restarts.
Try another connection
Test the same title on a different connection. Switch the phone to cellular data, or point a TV at a phone hotspot instead of the home router, and watch whether playback recovers. If it does, the router is the weak point: restart it, wait for the lights to settle, then reconnect the device.
Sign out and sign back in
Open the profile menu and choose Sign Out. Sign back in with the same email and password on one device first, because that shows whether the fault follows the account or stays on that screen. If the password gets rejected, reset it on the website and try once more.
Reinstall the app
Delete the app and install a fresh copy from your device's app store. If it still fails for you while other people in the house are streaming fine, the account or this device is the likelier cause, and the official status page at https://pplus-status.paramount.tech/ shows whether reports are running above the usual level. Account and billing fixes sit in the help centre at https://help.paramountplus.com.
While Paramount+ is down: what to use instead
- Netflix Netflix works when the app will not play anything.
- Prime Video Prime Video helps if you have an Amazon account and want included titles during the outage.
- Disney+ Disney+ has family films when the app will not load.
- Website Try the browser version when the mobile app crashes or hangs, and check the official status page if the website also fails.

What happens when Paramount+ goes down
Paramount+ is a streaming service for movies, TV series, live sports and channels from Paramount brands. You use it on phones, smart TVs, streaming sticks and the web, so an outage cuts into a movie night or a live match you sat down to watch.
When it goes down, the app may hang on its splash screen or refuse your sign-in, and the home screen can load with empty rows because your profiles and watchlist never arrive. Playback tends to fail next: a title spins, throws a vague 'something went wrong' message, stops midway, or drops you back to the menu, while downloads you queued stay stuck at the start. Live channels and sports feeds often fail before on-demand titles because a live stream has less room to recover. Problems are often partial or regional, so your neighbor on a different device or ISP may stream fine while your TV app stays broken.

How we track Paramount+
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Paramount+, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Paramount+, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from Paramount+'s official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
