Paramount Plus is packed with live sports, breaking news, exclusive originals, and a deep on-demand library. But one thing that bothers a lot of subscribers is that Paramount Plus is only available in certain regions, like the US, Canada and Australia. So is it possible to watch Paramount Plus when you travel to a country where Paramount Plus is restricted? This guide explains how to change location on Paramount Plus to unlock more content.

Part 1. Can I Watch Paramount Plus in Two Different Locations

Short answer: yes. Paramount Plus allows you to stream on up to three devices at the same time. These devices can be in different cities, states or even time zones. The limit applies to both plans: the Essential plan ($7.99/month) and the SHOWTIME plan ($12.99/month).

Paramoun's official rules state one account is only for one primary home network. Your account is tied to one main residential Wi-Fi. But as of 2026, Paramount Plus does not strictly ban password sharing. You don't have to connect devices to your home Wi-Fi to verify your location. You can share your account with family in different locations. Just make sure no more than three people stream at the same time.

When you travel within the US, your local live CBS channel will switch automatically via your device's IP address. For example, if you travel from Chicago to Los Angeles, you will get LA's KCBS channel instead of Chicago's WBBM. When you get back home, it switches back to your local station automatically. If you visit a country that does not support Paramount Plus, you will need a VPN or a location spoofer to watch shows.

Part 2. How to Change Local Station on Paramount Plus

Unlike some streaming services, you don't have to adjust Paramount Plus location settings to update your new residence. Your location is determined by two things: your Endereço IP and your GPS data. So if you've moved to a new home, you don't need to do anything. Just start streaming, and Paramount Plus will automatically update to your new IP address and serve the right local CBS affiliate.

If your local station still shows the old location even though you're at home, you can unplug your modem and router, wait for 60 seconds, then plug them back in. The restart can refresh your IP address.

For Apple TV users, go to Definições > Em geral > Região, toggle to a different region and back again, then restart the Paramount Plus app.

For mobile, you need to check if Paramount Plus has enabled location permissions.

• On iOS: Go to Definições > privacidade e segurança > Serviços de localização > Paramount Plus > select "Ao usar o aplicativo."
• On Android: Open Definições > Localização, and allow Paramount Plus access.

Part 3. How to Watch Other Local Channels on Paramount Plus

Paramount Plus provides multiple live channel options in Live TV section, like CBS News, CBS Sports HQ, and ET Live. If you want to watch local channels from another city or region, you have to change location on Paramount Plus.

How to Trick Paramount Plus Location via a VPN

A VPN is another option. It routes your internet traffic through a server in a city you choose, so Paramount Plus sees that city's IP address and serves the matching local content.

Part 4. How To Fix Paramount Plus Location Problems

Here are quick fixes to the most Paramount Plus common errors.

1. Wrong CBS Station Showing

Restart the modem and router. If that doesn't fix it, reinstall the Paramount Plus app on the device. On mobile, make sure location permissions are enabled.

2. "VPN Detected" Error

If you get a "VPN detected" error, try switching to a different server in the same city, clearing your browser cache and cookies, or logging out and back into your Paramount Plus account. You can also try using another paid VPN service.

3. Too Many Streams (Error 60)

You've reached the three-screen limit. You can sign out of all devices through your Paramount Plus account settings. Or you can simply change your password, which kicks all devices off automatically.

Conclusão

Paramount Plus uses your IP address to deliver content. Because of this, your location can't be directly changed inside the app. You can only change your GPS location to access channels in other regions. Have you solved these problems? Now you can watch Paramount Plus outside the US and enjoy your favorite CBS live channels!
