With over 10 years of experience he has become the go-to guru for streaming content from home and abroad.
Pluto.tv is one of the best online streaming services with loads of great free live TV networks. The downside is it’s only officially available in the United States.
In this guide I’ll show you how you can watch Pluto.TV anywhere in the world. This means you can watch Pluto.tv in Canada, Mexico, the UK, Australia or any other country on the planet.
All you’ll need to do this is a simple app called a VPN. A VPN allows you to disguise your location but I’ll cover that below.
So if you want to watch Pluto.tv anywhere in the world read on to find out how.
Step 1: Grab yourself a VPN app
As you’ll already know Pluto.tv is restricted to viewing from within the US. If you try to watch outside the US then you’ll be blocked from viewing.
Pluto.TV knows where you are because of your internet connection. However, by using a small app called a ‘VPN‘ you can make it look like you’re in another country, in this case, the United States.
A VPN is a completely legal privacy tool aimed at helping stop people track your online actions.
There are absolutely hundreds of companies selling VPN services and they all vary in quality. I’ve been testing a whole host of them with Pluto.TV and found that ExpressVPN worked the best. Not only did they allow buffer-free viewing but they’ve also got a risk-free 30-day money back guarantee.
If you’ve got time to look at a few options and you want to compare then I recommend checking out the following.
