Hi everyone,
So was excited to learn paramount plus is now in the UK. I was, however, horrified to discover that neither the integration into Apple TV app nor the stand alone app provide audio description, as is found in the US version of the service.
I'm uncertain if it works on other non-apple devices, but it certainly isn't yet an option here.
I'll keep this thread updated but also, if anyone else has got it working or can say if paramount is offering AD or not, please chime in.
Thanks

ST Discovery season one just got AD
I expected the PP shows with AD in the US to have it here in the UK. But so far today, the only one I have found with it is Discovery season 1.
I only seem to have season 1, although I expected all 4. Maybe they are adding things slowly?
I will be very upset if the US shows with AD aren't available with it here.
That's great. Just checked…
That's great. Just checked it out myself here on Apple TV though, interestingly, audio description only seems to be available through the paramount app and not when playing through the Apple TV app. In fact, there are several languages/audio tracks, that don't appear as an Apple TV channel, but do within the Paramount app.
This is encouraging.
I am finding, however, to interact with the audio options I'm having to change VoiceOver to follow focus rather than direct touch. I've got the old 4k with the stupid little Siri remote, so that is something for people to be aware of.
It might simply be that they are behind on the catalogue and haven't yet migrated all audio tracks and languages over. Fingers crossed, anyway.
discovery season 4
disco season 4 has AD.
