How to unblock ABC.com with Proton VPN

The ABC app and ABC.com are TV Everywhere services that allow TV subscribers that get ABC and live in the US to stream ABC content on demand. While you can watch ABC.com on most smart phones and tablets, it only works if you are within the United States or a US territory. ABC shows include soap operas like General Hospital, late-night talk shows like Jimmy Kimmel Live!, and drams like How to Get Away with Murder.

Proton VPN users can watch all their favorite ABC shows online at ABC.com!

But Modern Family is not the only thing you can watch with Proton VPN. You can also stream Disney+, HBO Now, Netflix, and Amazon Prime Video. See all the streaming services you can access with our streaming guide for new users.

How to watch ABC shows online with Proton VPN:

Connect to any Plus server located in the United States. Plus servers have a “P” icon next to them.

On your Android TV (app currently in beta testing), connecting to United States will automatically connect you to a Plus server if you have the right subscription.

Plus servers are available for Plus and Visionary Plan subscribers. For the fastest and most reliable connection, please connect to the server that is closest to your current location. To find the nearest servers to you, check the full list of our servers.

Proton VPN does not condone the use of our VPN service to bypass copyright regulations.

Step 1:

Get a VPN Plus or Proton Unlimited subscription

If you already have a VPN Plus, Proton Unlimited, or Visionary (legacy users only)  account, you can skip to step 2.

If you’re a new user, sign up for Proton VPN.

If you have a Free plan, upgrade your account by logging in and selecting VPN Plus or Proton Unlimited from your account Dashboard.

Step 2:

Install our VPN app

If you’ve already installed one of our apps, you can skip to step 3.

You need to download the Proton VPN app for your operating system. You can securely stream your favorite shows on Windows, macOS, and Linux devices or on the go with an Android device.

If you have an Android TV, you can join the beta testing program and install the app directly on your device.

For installation help, here are our support guides:

Step 3:

Start watching your favorite ABC shows online with your VPN!

Connect to a Plus server in the US, select a show to watch at ABC.com, then kick back and relax.

Step 4: (Optional)

Register your TV provider at abc.com

To access additional ABC shows, you’ll need to have an account with a participating US TV provider. If you live in the US and subscribe to ABC through a participating TV provider, you will receive access to additional content and exclusive extras. (This is assuming your TV subscription is in good standing.)
