How to stream FOX with your cable subscription
The easiest and cheapest option for streaming FOX used to be the company’s own app, FOX Now, but it has been discontinued. Today, you can enjoy the same perks by logging into the Fox website with your cable subscription details or account details. Here’s how:
- Go to the Fox website.
- On the top-right corner of the screen, you’ll find two options: TV Provider Sign In and Account Sign In. Click on the option that applies to you.
After you input these details, Fox will identify your station (in case of a TV provider sign-in) and let you start streaming.
You can also create an account without cable subscription details on their website, but you’ll only get access to every show for 30 minutes. This is a preview pass, so you can watch the shows you have in mind before you decide if you’d like a subscription or not.

How to stream FOX if you don’t have cable
The only way to access these channels without a cable subscription is to sign up for a live TV streaming service.
There are plenty to choose from. DirecTV Stream, FuboTV, Hulu Plus Live TV, Sling TV, or YouTube TV will all give you access to various FOX channels, including entertainment, news, and sports.
These services effectively bridge the gap between streaming and traditional cable and broadcast. You get access to various cable channels through whichever app you choose, allowing you to watch TV live from your computer, smart TV, or another device of your choice.
Philo TV and Frndly TV are the two big exceptions among these. Neither of these live TV streaming services offers access to FOX.
