Pluto is a free streaming service offering 250+ live channels and on-demand content. After the acquisition by Viacom in 2019, Pluto delivers content from networks like Paramount, MTV, Nickelodeon, and many more. For Sharp Smart TVs, Pluto TV offers a dedicated app for models running Android, Google, and Roku operating system. Users with Aquos TV models must rely on the casting feature to watch the Pluto TV titles on the bigger screen.

Once they are on the same network, tap the Cast icon on the Pluto TV app and choose your TV name to watch the titles on the larger screen.
Alternatively, you can connect and use a streaming device that has native support for this streaming service. Pluto TV is compatible with devices like Firestick, Google TV, Roku, and Apple TV. If you have any one of these devices, connect it to the TV and access the Pluto TV app natively.
FAQ
