Disney + for Windows

Endless Disney Entertainment at Your Fingertips

Experience the magic of Disney wherever you may be thanks to Disney+! With endless hit movies, exclusive series and amazing documentaries, this streaming platform is the home of Disney, Pixar Marvel, Star Wars, National Geographic and Star. Being the home of all your favorite stories, it’s no surprise Disney Plus has become the on-demand service choice for both young and adults. Enjoy its easy-to-use interface and dive in its extraordinary catalog of blockbuster hits on your PC, Smart TV or mobile devices. 

What is Disney Plus?

Disney+ is a Windows application that allows you to watch and download all the content on the Disney Plus streaming platform. With the app you can access over 500 movies, 7,000 television series, and documentaries that go from classic Disney and Pixar movies to all the Marvel and Star Wars films and shows, exclusive tv series such as Only Murders in the Building, National Geographic documentaries and all the extra content from Star. All of it in glorious 4K (if your device supports it).

How does Disney Plus work?

If you’ve previously used a streaming service to watch movies online, you’ll love the familiar interface and design of the program. On the ‘Home’ screen, you’ll be able to view rows of content, sorted by genre, origin, streaming quality, and other aspects. 

There is a large-sized banner that dynamically changes to display logos of Disney’s various big brands, including Marvel, Star Wars, Simpsons, and more. The Mandalorian is another exclusive title you can only watch on Disney+.

The development team has divided all the content into multiple categories, making it easier for users to access their preferred shows and movies. You can also use the search bar to look for specific titles available on the platform. 

With a lot of titles to offer, Disney+ lists endless groupings and categories, each editorially curated to suit your preferences. The app also gives personalized recommendations to match user behavior and considers previously viewed titles, recently visited programs, and other factors.

What about the content library?

While services like Sling TV focus on live content, Disney+ wins the race with classic Disney movies, popular Disney shows, animated titles, and original content. Most importantly, users prefer the availability of Marvel movies, Star Wars series, Pixar animations, and National Geographic content.

With ‘Originals’, Disney seems to have built a platform to compete with Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, HBO, and other leading multimedia content providers. As of now, you can’t find a lot of original content, but the company keeps updating the catalog on a regular basis. 

Some of the most popular content options include The Mandalorian, High School Musical - The Series, Noelle, The World According to Jeff Goldblum, and Encore. Additionally, you can watch the Pixar Spark Shots, an engaging collection of mini-movies.

Since its launch, the catalog has expanded its offerings to include Hamilton, The Clone Wars, Muppets Now, and The Simpsons. Disney+ seems to be tapping into Fox’s catalog of shows and movies to fill any gaps in programming schedules.

Within a short period of time, the platform has become a popular choice among binge-watchers, casual streamers, and Disney fans across the world. For live content, it uses ESPN and Hulu’s range of programs.

What about the viewing experience?

When it comes to the Windows version, you won’t experience any major issues. With a stable internet connection, the service doesn’t require much buffering time and plays your favorite content seamlessly. Moreover, the platform can be accessed through a web browser, including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, etc.

Disney+ also supports HDR content, which looks great on smartphones and large-screen TVs alike. While this is common for video streaming services, it was a welcome addition for Disney+, which has a catalog of some really old movies and TV shows. 

Since the service is available for a low price, it’s highly recommended. Between multiple Disney classics, Skywalker Saga in 4K UHD, Marvel films, and originals, it lets you watch movies online without much effort. Regardless of your age group, you’ll love the collection of titles available on the app. You can even host a GroupWatch session with up to six friends and family members.

Though the company could have added a few latest releases, a specific content schedule, and more originals, it has successfully laid a strong foundation to compete with popular video streaming services. Once you start exploring the library, you will definitely not be disappointed with what it has to offer.

What language and accessibility features are available on Disney+?

The video streaming service offers content in multiple languages, including English, Dutch, French, and Spanish. For some countries, such as India, the company has tied up with local streaming services such as Hotstar to offer content in regional languages.

Disney+ for Windows supports captions and subtitles for library content. For Disney+ Originals, extra dialects are available. Overall, the app focuses on providing a hassle-free viewing experience, trying to overtake leading services in the market.

How many devices are supported?

With a single Disney+ subscription, you can stream content on up to four devices simultaneously. Additionally, you can create seven profiles for individual members of the family, your friends, or colleagues. Disney+ download comes with over 200 avatars for user profiles, which help differentiate among multiple user access modules. These avatars are available in the form of Star Wars, Marvel, Pixar, or Disney characters.

Subscribers can download the application on up to 10 devices, including Windows computers as well as Android and iOS mobile devices. There are no limitations on the number of times a specific title can be downloaded for offline viewing. 

Can Disney Plus be shared with family or friends?

Yes and no. Every Disney Plus account allows up to 4 people to simultaneously stream at once on different screens. However, the platform doesn’t allow account sharing between households, so you shouldn’t share your password with people who don't live with you. While Disney doesn’t actively enforce this rule, you’ll break the rules of the platform by sharing your login with anyone who isn’t living under your same roof.

How do you start using Disney+?

Disney+ can be accessed primarily through its official website and apps. As long as you have an active subscription and a user account, you can watch its wide catalog of movies and shows via your own web browser or a supported device’s Disney+ app. You can avail yourself of either its ad-free solo subscription or its bundled package with Hulu and ESPN+. You also have the choice between Mobile and Premium plans, depending on whether you like to watch on-the-go or at home,
