If you’re having trouble getting Discovery Plus to work on your smart TV, don’t worry – you’re not alone. In this article, we’ll show you how to add Discovery Plus to your Apple TV so you can start streaming your favorite shows and movies in no time.
First, let’s go over some basics. Discovery Plus is a streaming service that starts at $5 a month and requires an internet connection. You can stream Discovery Plus on your phone, computer, or compatible TV device. Only one account is needed per household, but you can create up to five profiles for different family members and watch up to four streams at the same time.
To stream Discovery Plus on your Apple TV, you’ll need a compatible device. Here’s a list of all the devices that work with Discovery Plus, according to their website: Amazon Fire TV, Android TV, Apple TV, Chromecast, Roku, and Samsung.
If you don’t have a compatible device already, we recommend a Roku for first-time streamers. Roku has several entry-level models for under $50, such as the Roku Premiere which is well under $40. In the box, you’ll find a Roku player, an HDMI cable, a power adapter and cable, and a remote with batteries included.
To set up your Roku, start by connecting one end of the HDMI cable to the Roku player and the other end to your TV’s HDMI input (look for “HDMI 1” or “HDMI 2”). Then, plug the Roku into an electrical outlet and use your TV remote to power on your TV and select the HDMI input that you used (in this case, HDMI 1).
Next, follow the setup instructions on your screen to connect the Roku to your home internet. You’ll be asked to enter your email address to activate your Roku player, and Roku will send an activation link to your email. After naming your device and selecting its location, Roku will recommend various apps, including Discovery Plus. You can add it now or later.
To add Discovery Plus later, navigate to “Add Channels” on your Roku home screen, search for “Discovery Plus,” and select “Add Channel.” Once you’ve added the channel, you can access it anytime from your Roku home screen.
When you launch Discovery Plus from Roku for the first time, you’ll see a screen to start your free trial or sign in. We recommend signing up directly at DiscoveryPlus.com. After setting up your account on your phone or computer, enter your email address and password on your Roku to sign in.
That’s it! You’re all set to explore all that Discovery Plus has to offer on the big screen. If you decide to cancel Discovery Plus, do it from DiscoveryPlus.com on your computer or the Discovery Plus app on your phone. The free trial lasts for only seven days, but you can cancel early and still get access for the full seven days.
