2021 comes bearing some great news for the non-fiction lovers as the Discovery Plus streaming service has now been made an integral part of several sought-after platforms including Fire OS.

Discovery+ is rapidly becoming one of the most popular on-demand, non-fiction service. This service brings together award-winning documentaries from the well-known Discovery, Inc. channels including Animal Planet, Discovery Channel, Discovery Science, Discovery Turbo, Investigation Discovery, and TLC.

All the aired shows and documentaries are almost instantly available for streaming on Discovery+. And, you can watch them all on your FireStick with the Discovery+ app.

Discovery Plus: A Quick Intro

If you are looking for non-fiction, fact-based entertainment, nothing comes close to Discovery+. While it is one of the best documentary services across the globe, its multilingual support makes it all the more desirable. Even though there is a nearly endless number of streaming services, Discovery+ clearly stands out, courtesy of the extensive catalog of original shows.

With almost all the Discovery, Inc. channels available for on-demand streaming, Discovery+ gives you access to tons of high-quality content. In case you are unaware of certain content pieces exclusive to the Discovery Plus app, we hope that the likes of Project Runway, Man vs. Wild, Food Factory, and more can jog your memory, just right.

Additionally, Discovery Plus offers built-in Alexa support. Meaning, you can control the app and lookup your favorite videos with a simple voice command.

Discovery+ Pricing for FireStick and other devices

Discovery+ currently offers two plans:

  • $4.99 per month
  • $6.99 per month (ad-free)

You may sign up directly through the Discovery+ FireStick app (demonstrated later in the guide). Alternatively, you can also visit their website to sign up for Discovery+.

Both of these plans offer a free 7-day trial. You can test drive the service for 7 days before deciding whether you want to keep it or not.

As is evident, the $6.99 plan lets you stream all your favorite content without any advertisements and interruptions.

Discovery+ has only monthly plans currently. There are no longer-duration plans, such as yearly or bi-annual.
