Overview
- Perplexity’s TV app is live now on all 2025 Samsung models, with 2023–2024 sets slated to get it later this year via an OS update.
- Samsung TV users can redeem a free 12‑month Perplexity Pro subscription by scanning the QR code shown when the app first launches.
- The app delivers conversational, generative AI search that cites sources, supports voice or typed input, and displays answers as big‑screen cards.
- Access is available from the Apps tab or through Vision AI Companion, and voice use requires granting the TV microphone permission.
- The launch aligns with a wider push to add AI assistants to TVs, including Google’s Gemini expanding on Google TV, as Perplexity faces reported scraping and copyright lawsuits.
