Variety of content on your fingertips!

Disney+ is a relatively new streaming service, which can be used to download or stream your favorite Disney TV shows, movies, and other content. With Disney+ Android, you can get the best of online movies, online TV shows, Star Wars content, National Geographic, Pixar movies, Marvel movies, and other Disney classics right on your fingertips. The ad-free service proves to be less expensive than the competition, and the familiar layout ensures ease-of-use. While Disney+ could do well with some more content in the catalog, it’s still a worthy candidate for a streaming service on your Android device.

The perfect choice for Disney fans!

With Disney+, you can watch your favorite TV shows and movies in HDR and 4K UHD from anywhere you want. In fact, you can even watch your favorite content offline, once it has been downloaded on your device. From Disney-sponsored documentaries to originals, cartoons, TV series, and movie releases, you can stream loads of content on your Android device. While the app is famous for a wide range of content, there’s still more variety on popular services like Amazon Prime Video and Netflix. In the coming months, Disney will have to ramp up the additions to the catalog.

Does Disney+ offer exclusive content?

While Disney+ needs to add new content to compete with streaming giants, it’s not really a valid complaint. In the beginning stages, the app has focused on several Disney titles, exclusive to the Android app. For instance, you can enjoy The Mandalorian, Snow White, Pixar movies, Simpsons, and other popular shows and movies.

If you’ve been a fan of Disney’s content, you’ll love the offerings, and would want to stay tuned for hours in one go. It’s worth mentioning that Disney owns both Star Wars and Marvel, and as such, it’s the only streaming service with old and new content from these franchises. With Disney+ Android, you can watch your favorite Marvel and Star Wars movies anytime, from anywhere.

Apart from blockbuster Star Wars and Marvel hits, you can also enjoy Falcon, WandaVision, Loki, or the Winter Soldier. With Disney+ Android, you get a familiar layout of streaming services like Hulu and HBO NOW. Therefore, the app is easy to use, with big banners on the top of the home page depicting newly added content, and well-defined categories to help you browse through a range of content.

With the streaming service, Disney has focused on exclusive content to lure in more customers. For many years, it has enjoyed tremendous success due to a loyal fanbase. With Disney+, the company aims to tap into this fanbase, while adding new content on a regular basis. Most importantly, the availability of ESPN, National Geographic, and other popular platforms makes Disney+ a good choice.

Is Disney+ a good choice for Android?

It’s true that the app suffers from a few technical problems, but Disney has been working hard to fix issues. Currently, there are some minor issues related to integration with Chromecast. For instance, when one episode ends, the next one doesn’t begin automatically. Similarly, a paused movie might not pick up from where you left it.

On the Android app, the brightness setting fluctuates and makes the nighttime scenes seem darker than usual. These issues are quite apparent if you’ve already been using other streaming services like Netflix or Amazon Prime Video. However, these problems aren’t major, and Disney will soon be able to resolve them for Android.

Can you use Disney+ on other platforms?

Like most streaming services, Disney+ is available on a wide range of platforms and devices, including tablet devices, iOS devices, Android TVs, Android smartphones, PC web browsers, Chromebooks, Chromecasts, Amazon Fire TVs, Roku devices, LG and Samsung Smart TVs, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4.

Our take

If you’ve been a fan of Disney, Star Wars, Marvel, or Pixar, Disney+ Android will be an excellent choice in terms of quality. Compared to other streaming and entertainment services, the app does have less content, but wins the race with exclusive Disney shows and movies. Additionally, it’s less expensive than the competition, and gives more value for your money.

Should you download it?

Yes, you should! Disney+ is an excellent choice for Android devices. While it’s a relatively new service, the company aims to make constant improvements in the coming months. From here on, the app’s versions will only get better with more content, downloads, and features.
