Can I watch purchased VODs on my TV?
You can cast videos via AirPlay or Chromecast to a TV that supports casting or has a connected casting device from your mobile device or web browser. Read how at How can I cast video via AirPlay or Chromecast? Consult with your TV's manufacturer to determine if yours supports AirPlay or Chromecast.
If you have an Apple TV running tvOS 18 or later, you can also use the Vimeo App for Apple TV to watch your on-demand videos. Read more at How do I watch videos on the Apple TV app?
Once you have access to Vimeo on your device, log in to your account, and navigate to your Watch Later queue — any Vimeo On Demand titles you purchase or rent will appear here automatically.
