  • I’ve tried to update Pluto several times on my fire stick ... each time, after downloading, I get a ‘installation failure/ message and the app will not load. Any thoughts?

    • You will need to delete the app and re-install it. Looks like it is corrupted. We have updated the link so you won't have any problems now.

  • I've installed and use Pluto tv on my ROKU device, unfortunately it goes out of sync quite often. I deleted it and reinstalled and still happens. How can I fix this.
    Could use some more cop shows like law and order, svu, ncis, rizzoli and isles, criminal minds.
    More classic tv shows like the brady bunch, partridge family, one day at a time, jeffersons and so forth

    • Hey Stacy! Try clearing the data from the app by going in to Settings, Application, Manage Installed Applications, Pluto TV, and clear data. Connect to a VPN if you're outside the US and then open Pluto TV again.

  • Hello...I have a 4K firestick and NORD VPN. I can search for PlutoTV but when I select it I get Canadian suggestions, such as Crave. I am in Canada and have NORD logged into US location. Any suggestions? Using it in my firestick browser is clunky and doesn't scroll well.

    • Hey Ilene, you can download it from Kodi? the second method that we have discussed. We will also update Pluto TV for Canadian users as well.
