On the phone, the Discovery + app is now available on Android and iOS. And if you have a TV with built-in Chromecast or AirPlay support, you can use the protocols to throw content out of the app. When it comes to consoles, you can download Discovery + on Xbox One and Xbox Series X / S – but not PS4 and PS5 as mentioned above. Finally, the service is available via the Internet on Chrome OS, MacOS and Windows PCs.
The company has also announced a new partnership with Vodafone to make Discovery + available to existing TV and mobile customers in 12 countries across Europe, including the UK, Germany, Italy and Spain. As previously announced, Verizon (Engadget’s parent company) is also offering a promotion that offers up to one year of free Discovery + to new and current mobile customers, as well as some Fios customers.
Discovery + sets you back $ 5 per month for the base level. This is an extra $ 2 per month if you do not want to see any ads. At the launch you will find content from channels such as HGTV, Food Network, Animal Planet, TLC and of course Discovery. The $ 5 and $ 7 price tags bring Discovery + into competition with other specialty services like Peacock and Disney +, which can make it difficult for some people.
