How to Add Discovery+ on The Roku Channel

The Roku Channel now offers Discovery+ as a premium service, giving you tons of content for a small monthly fee. Here's how you can access it.

Discovery+ is finally available as a premium subscription on The Roku Channel. Besides all the original content, this addition brings over 70,000 episodes of shows from Discovery Channel, HGTV, Food Network, TLC, ID, Travel Channel, OWN, Animal Planet, A&E, History Channel, Lifetime, and Magnolia Network.

The subscription prices for Discovery+ via The Roku Channel are the same as if you'd get the service as a stand-alone.

Discovery+ Gets Added to The Roku Channel

The Roku Channel has been growing a lot lately, constantly adding more channels to the collection. Discovery+ isn't the first premium service to get added to The Roku Channel, but it is the first platform to feature an ad-supported tier.

Discovery+ features two tiers; the ad-supported tier costs $4.99/month, while the ad-free plan is $6.99/month. Obviously, neither of them is super expensive, but it's still nice to have the option to pay less in exchange for some ads here and there. You get a lot of content for these subscription prices, so getting Discovery+ makes sense for The Roku Channel users.

Through The Roku Channel, Discovery+ increases its visibility among a user base that counts some 80 million people who are already enjoying lots of content, including Roku originals. According to Warner Bros. Discovery's quarterly report, Discovery+ has 24 million subscribers as of the end of the first quarter of 2022.
