How to watch Crunchyroll in a Tesla

Crunchyroll streams anime in the Tesla browser. Free with ads or ad-free on a membership, both sign in the same way.

Launch Crunchyroll Browser route

Good to know: Browser only. Account recommended to skip ads and resume episodes.

Step by step

  1. Park the car

    Streaming only runs in Park. Shift into Park and keep the car awake, a charging stop is the ideal moment.

  2. Open BigScrn in the car browser

    Open the in-car web browser and go to bigscrn.com. Bookmark it so it is one tap away next time.

  3. Tap Go full screen

    On the launcher, tap Go full screen. BigScrn bounces the browser through YouTube, the one site Tesla opens full screen. Tap "Go to site" when it appears and you land back full screen, and the browser stays that way.

  4. Launch Crunchyroll and sign in

    Tap Launch on Crunchyroll and sign in with your account. The browser remembers it, so you only sign in once per car. It opens full screen.

  5. Press play

    Start a title. It fills the display and audio plays through the car speakers.

Questions

Does Crunchyroll work in a Tesla?

Yes. Crunchyroll runs in the Tesla browser while the car is parked. There is no built-in Tesla app, so the browser is the way in.

Do I need a Crunchyroll subscription?

Yes. You watch with your own Crunchyroll account, the same login you use on a phone or TV.

Can I watch Crunchyroll while driving?

No. Streaming only works in Park, and you should never watch video while the car is moving. BigScrn is for passengers and parked, charging cars.

Where does the Crunchyroll audio play?

Through the car speakers. Set the volume on the steering-wheel scroll or the on-screen control as you would for music.

Is BigScrn part of Crunchyroll?
