How to Install Pluto TV on Smart TV

In the Play Store, hover over the search menu.
Search for Pluto TV app.
Install the app.
You can now go back to the app menu and move the app to be more accessible.
If you don't have the Google Play Store available, go to your TV's web browser.
In the browser, select the URL bar and put https://pluto.tv/live-tv in the bar.
You'll be able to watch Pluto TV from your TV's browser.
