Spectrum TV plans

There are a number of different plans, both for people who have a standard cable TV connection at home and for those who want to cut the cord.

Cable TV plans

Spectrum TV offers four main plans for cable TV subscribers. All plans also allow users to access the Spectrum TV app for PCs, mobile devices, and smart TVs, along with thousands of free and paid on-demand TV shows and movies. The specific channel lineup for each plan may differ depending on your location. Other premium channels may be added to each plan for additional fees.

All of these plans require a set-top box, DVR box, or CableCARD device connected to your home TV. Customers can also access these channels with the Spectrum TV app. Keep in mind that Charter/Spectrum also offers bundles with internet access, telephone, and mobile service for other rates too. The company also offers cable TV plans specifically for Latino audiences.

Some customers in competitive areas are being offered another non-advertised plan. The Lifestyle plan includes local channels and over 50 other cable channels for $19.95 a month. However, it's only available if you bundle it with internet service.

Internet-only plans

Internet-only customers can also subscribe to Spectrum TV Stream, which offers all the local TV channels and 25 other cable TV channels for $34.99. Extra channels are available for additional fees. Those same internet-only customers can also choose to pick Spectrum TV Essentials, which offers 62 channels, but no local channels, for $14.99 a month. Both of these plans are only available to stream on PC and the Spectrum TV app for mobile devices and smart TVs.

Spectrum News/Spectrum Sports

In addition to providing cable channels from other companies, Charter also offers its own programming in certain markets. Spectrum News offers local news 24 hours a day in 10 US states, including New York City. In addition, Spectrum Sports operates regional sports channels in four US states. That includes New York City, where the channel shows live New York Mets games, and Los Angeles, which shows local LA Lakers and LA Dodgers games.

Spectrum TV app

TV customers can also access the Spectrum TV app which allows users to access live TV channels on their PC, smart TV, or mobile device at home and away from home. Some channels, such as local broadcast channels are not available on the app if is not connected to a Spectrum internet source. The applications also offer full access to the cable TV service's on-demand library of TV shows and movies. The mobile apps can download those programs for offline viewing. Additionally, you can program your home DVR remotely with the app.

Currently, the app's supported devices include:

iOS-based phones and tablets
Apple TV set-top boxes
Android-based phones and tablets
Amazon Fire tablets
Samsung smart TVs
Microsoft Xbox One consoles

In addition, the mobile apps also support Google Chromecast dongles and TVs, which allow them to cast their apps on those devices.

Until recently, a Spectrum TV app was also available for Roku smart TVs and devices. However, in mid-December 2020, Spectrum announced that it had not been able to reach a new agreement with Roku. As a result, the Spectrum TV app was removed from Roku's download library. Users who already downloaded the app on their Roku device can continue to use it, but they are advised to not delete the app from their device.

Spectrum Originals

Starting in 2018, Spectrum TV started showing original programming via its on-demand service under the Spectrum Originals brand. These shows are semi-exclusive to the service. That means they either are original to the US market or released first for Spectrum customers before becoming available on other outlets.
