Why WHRO+ Is Better Than Passport Alone:

✔️ Six WHRO Channels — Streamed LIVE
Unlike Passport, WHRO+ lets you stream all six WHRO television channels live—from WHRO TV 15 and WHRO World to WHRO Kids, WHRO Create, NHK World Japan, and FNX.

✔️ Exclusive Local Programming
WHRO+ is your home for local stories that matter. Watch powerful documentaries, community spotlights, and regional content you won’t find anywhere else—even on Passport.

✔️ TimeMachine Video — Explore Our Archives
Only WHRO+ gives you access to TimeMachine Video, a deep dive into WHRO’s vault of locally produced classics and cultural treasures.

✔️ The Learning Destination
Discover educational shows and lifelong learning resources from WHRO’s acclaimed education department—content made possible by our partnership with 21 local school divisions.

✔️ Free & Easy to Use on Any Device
WHRO+ is completely free—no subscription required—and works on Roku, Apple TV, most smart TVs*, tablets, mobile devices, and any web browser at video.whro.org. Whether you're streaming from the couch or on the go, WHRO+ is always within reach.

* Device Compatibility Note:
Some older Samsung (pre-2020) and Vizio smart TVs may not display or support the WHRO+ app. If WHRO+ does not appear in your TV’s app store search results, your model likely does not support the app. To ensure the best experience, we recommend using an affordable streaming device such as Roku, Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV, or Google Chromecast, all of which fully support WHRO+.
