Pluto TV has launched a new UX.

Pluto TV is giving itself a makeover. The free streaming service owned by Paramount has announced the launch of a new user experience, an attempt to better connect viewers to titles they want to watch via enhanced content discovery. The move could presage other updates as Paramount tries to modernize its streamers and prepares to welcome HBO Max into the fold.

Key Details:

  • New look: Pluto TV has launched an updated user interface.
  • New tabs: The interface now includes Movies and Shows hubs and personalized content rows.
  • Greater volume: The streamer has also added a selection of new content.

The new Pluto TV user interface is designed to more closely integrate live and on-demand entertainment, offer more personalization, and make it easier to find something new to stream. These updates will help Pluto TV boost engagement with its platform if successful.

The home screen now features dedicated Movies and Shows hubs with premium artwork and richer content details. The screen also now includes personalized, curated content rows, which should help connect viewers with a new stream more easily.

Updates to the Pluto TV channel guide will help viewers favorite channels and see upcoming programming more easily, while Live-to-VOD functionality will enable immediate on-demand playback of available titles from the live guide. One-click restart, watchlist controls, and unified search are also rolling out.

Paramount has pledged to keep Pluto TV for at least the next five years, and this update may not be the last attempt to refresh the streamer. In its release announcing the updates, Paramount says it will “continue to work on user experience enhancements” for Pluto TV.

The streamer is also adding a selection of content to help lure viewers into trying its new interface. Bingeable titles like “Arrow,” “Hart of Dixie,” “The X-Files,” and more are now available on-demand on Pluto TV, which has seen monthly on-demand viewership grow by 70% in 2026.

Pluto TV

Pluto TV is a free streaming service backed by Paramount that offers a traditional cable-like channel surfing experience. The service offers hundreds of free round-the-clock channels, including classics like “Star Trek,” “The Twilight Zone,” and “The Price is Right.”

…

Rather than attempting to carry expensive local broadcast affiliates or high-profile live sports leagues, the lineup leans heavily into curated thematic programming. You will find dedicated channels cycling non-stop episodes of many classic TV shows, alongside niche feeds for anime, true crime, classic sitcoms, and live headline news loops from outlets like CBS News. Alongside the live grid, there is also a hefty on-demand vault filled with older Hollywood catalog films, cult classics, and complete archived series.

Because Pluto TV mirrors linear broadcast television, you cannot pause or fast-forward through commercial breaks, nor is there a cloud DVR feature to record airings for later viewing. That said, it’s a great alternative for those looking for a wide range of channels without subscription fees.
