How To Watch Pluto TV On Older LG TV Models

If you have an older LG TV Model that doesn’t support the Pluto TV application, there are a few workarounds for watching Pluto TV on your television.

  • Apple TV
  • Roku Streaming Stick
  • Chromecast with Google TV
  • PS4
  • PS5
  • Xbox Series S/X
  • Xbox One

Once you have a streaming device, you’ll want to plug it into your LG TV (and wall, if needed) and connect to WiFi.

Then, search the device’s store for Pluto TV, click Download, and wait for the installation process to complete.

The process will vary slightly depending on which device you’re using.

Using LG SmartShare

Another option is casting from your Android device to your LG TV using SmartShare.

Essentially, LG SmartShare allows you to screen mirror any applications from your Android phone to the television.

Most LG Smart TVs have the SmartShare application preinstalled, so you’ll have to download and install the application onto your Android device.

Using AirPlay

Like the LG SmartShare method we just covered, Apple AirPlay offers the same functionality for iPhone users.

The main difference between the two is Apple AirPlay comes pre-installed on both your LG TV and iPhone, so you’ll need to check the control centers on each device to active it!
