What devices can’t I watch Disney Plus on?

Far fewer than there are compatible Disney Plus devices! But certain bits of tech haven’t yet been integrated with the Disney Plus app. And, as illustrated below, the older your device or OS, the less chance there is that it will be supported.

How many devices can you have Disney Plus on?

You can download the streaming service’s app to as many of your devices as you want. But! A single membership will only let you stream from four devices simultaneously.

As ourDisney Plus pricecomparison guide shows, that’s actually pretty brilliant considering the modest monthly fee ($7.99, or £7.99 in the UK, $11.99 in Canada, €8.99 in eurozone countries, and $11.99 in Australia).

You can also download content to up to 10 mobile devices and watch offline, so you could squeeze even more value from the platform.
