Quick Summary

Samsung TV Plus, the free-to-watch, ad-supported service on Samsung TVs has revealed an upgraded design.

It introduces a simpler layout, personalised homepage layout using its AI-supported system, and a live events spotlight for sports, concerts and breaking news.

Who doesn't love a free upgrade? And if you possess one of the best TVs that Samsung makes, then you're in luck.

That's because the brand's Samsung TV Plus free-to-watch, ad-supported service just unveiled a redesign that makes finding shows easier than before for an improved experience.

The new design also leverages Samsung's AI (artificial intelligence) systems to aid with personalising your viewing experience. It'll source from a wide range of channels, including Sony One, with shows such as Breaking Bad available for free.

As you can see from the image above, the interface's layout echoes what you'll find on many of the best streaming services, such as Amazon Prime Video. Such familiarity will make browsing a breeze.

This homescreen is now fully personalised, built around your favourites and what you watch. That means less scrolling to find what you want, less faffing about to get your favourite shows playing.

The AI element adapts to preferences, including learning from your viewing habits, ensuring the most relevant channels, shows, suggestions and genres float to the top – offering your best viewing, for you.

There's a 'Live Events Spotlight' to highlight sports, concerts, breaking news and live programming too. Check out the old Samsung TV Plus layout, as per an S95F QD-OLED TV from 2025, above.

Samsung's Vision AI is a prominent feature on the brand's 2025 TV range, not only delivering the above improvements, but putting its AI engine to use for picture processing enhancements in real-time.

Samsung TV Plus is a free service – and the most-used streaming app on Samsung's smart TVs. It offers over 3,500 channels, with ad support being why it's free to watch.

Samsung TV Plus is actually available on more than just Samsung TVs, too, with some Galaxy mobile devices, the Samsung Smart Monitor, and its Family Hub also supported.

You needn't own a brand new 2025 set for access, with the brand's smart TVs back to 2017 being supported. That means it's a benefit to current owners in addition to future buyers.
