Samsung's streaming service, known as Samsung TV Plus, is now available to watch on the web and on Chromecast devices.
Why These Streaming Apps Are Missing On Your Samsung TV
The new compatibility, which was first reported by Protocol, allows anyone to watch Samsung’s streaming service, regardless of whether they own a Samsung device or not. Previously, you could only watch Samsung TV Plus on Samsung smart TVs or Samsung smartphones.
Protocol reported that Samsung has yet to officially announce the new ways to watch the streaming service, but that the company confirmed it added the new viewing options in May.
Thanks to the new Chromecast compatibility, you can stream your favorite shows and movies using the Samsung TV Plus app for Android to a Chromecast-compatible device. It's important to note that Samsung's app is still only available for download on Samsung phones, such as the Galaxy S21 or Galaxy Note20. If you have an iPhone, however, you can still watch Samsung TV Plus via desktop on virtually any device.
