Paramount Plus app not working

Why cant I watch the Paramount app on my Roku TV when I pay for Paramount through Roku? It only allows me to watch Paramount through the Roku channel.

Re: Paramount Plus app not working

Since you subscribe to a premium channel through a third party like Roku, your subscription is not with that channel, it is with that third party.  Consequently the separate Paramount+ app does not recognize you. 

You can only access Paramount+ through the provisions of that third party. 

In Roku's case that means through The Roku Channel on a Roku device.
