May 2, 2023 - 4 mins read

 

We love Disney+ and we know you will too. With unprecedented access to entertainment from family favourite studios - Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars and National Geographic - Disney+ is the premium streaming content subscription every family will love.

1. Non-Stop Family Favourites

Disney+ is the streaming subscription for unrivalled, stay at home, family entertainment. With favourite shows from five superstar franchises, there’s something for everyone (not just the kids!). Enjoy a selection of classic movies and kid’s shows from Disney, unbelievable animations from Pixar, Marvel super heroes, Star Wars sci-fi and world acclaimed documentaries from National Geographic. Whether it’s Mickey Mouse, Ariel, Homer Simpson, or Thor, Disney+ is the perfect streaming service for your family movie nights – whether you’re a family with little kids, tweens or teens (or whether you’re the kid yourself) your whole family will find something to enjoy on Disney+.

2. See it in Stunning 4K - For No Extra Cost

Disney+ streams in 4K and is one of the few streaming services in Australia to offer 4K content in a standard subscription, so there’s no need to pay an additional cost to reap the benefits of this feature. What a great saving! With a 4K compatible TV, you can watch content in ultra-high definition.

4K TVs deliver four times as many pixels compared to Full HD TVs, which means that you can enjoy crystal clear picture quality and a more accurate and vibrant colour range. Say goodbye to pixelated TV imaging and hello to the ultimate cinema experience with 4K.

Once you’re set up with a compatible televisionphonetablet or computer to watch 4K content on, look for the HD label displayed on the Disney+ program’s details page. You can also select the Ultra HD and HDR filter in the movies tab to view the full range. Some of our favourite movies that can be streamed in 4K are The Lion King, Moana, Pirates of the Caribbean, Captain Marvel and Star Wars: The Last Jedi. There’s over 100 4K movies to choose from on Disney+.

“Disney+ allows you to watch your family’s favourite blockbuster movies from Disney, Pixar, Marvel and Star Wars anytime you want, and all in the comfort of your own home.”

3. See It First On Disney+

With Disney+ your family will have first access to exclusive content, such as The Mandalorian, (who can resist Grogu?). Or if action isn’t your cup of tea, you could watch the award-winning musical Hamilton, stream the exclusive High School Musical: The Series or watch the live-action retelling of the 1955 animated classic, Lady and the Tramp. Make some popcorn for the family and get to know some (or all!) of these shows, available only to Disney+ subscribers.

4. Super Faves For all the Family With Blockbuster Movies

When you think of blockbuster movies, The Avengers and Star Wars spring instantly to mind … and Toy Story, and Frozen, and Iron Man, and Toy Story 2, and Toy Story 3 and Toy Story 4 … well you get the picture! Disney+ allows you to watch your family’s favourite blockbuster movies from Disney, Pixar, Marvel and Star Wars anytime you want, and all in the comfort of your own home. A wonderful feature Disney+ offers is ‘search by decade’ - take a trip down memory lane and share your childhood favourites with your kids today.

5. Parental Controls For Safe Viewing

Whilst most of the content on Disney+ is child friendly, there are movies and shows, such as the Star Wars series, that are rated PG-13 - more suitable for the teens than the toddlers. As you’d expect from such an incredibly family oriented company, Disney+ has thoughtful parental controls - allowing parents to create a Kid’s Profile which limits the content that is available and prevents all PG titles from being viewed through the profile. If applied, your child will only be able to see age appropriate G rated content. Perfect!

6. Stream On The Telly, Or On-The-Go

Disney+ is available on an extensive range of devices. Stay entertained on-the-go with compatible Android smart phones and tablets as well as iPhones and iPads (subject to device generation). Or stream via your browser on your computer or laptop with Chrome OS, Mac OS or Windows PC software.

Of course, you can get the full big screen viewing experience at home and feel as though you are part of the action by watching on compatible LG and Samsung 4K UHD TVs, in fact Disney+ is available as a built-in app on many smart TVs.

If your TV is not compatible, there’s no need to worry, you can still enjoy your favourite superheroes and Jedi’s through Apple TV (4th generation onwards) or Chromecast, or via your compatible PS5 or Xbox, by simply downloading the Disney+ app from the device’s app store and you’re good to go. Or alternatively you can use your compatible smart phone to mirror Disney+ to your TV.

Disney+ allows you to stream on up to four devices at once, ensuring everyone is happy. There’s no need for arguments if the family can’t agree on what to watch. You can be exploring the world in your loungeroom with the latest National Geographic documentary, all whilst the littlies are letting it go with Elsa, Anna and Olaf in the kid’s room at the same time.

 

You can also enjoy Disney+ offline by downloading as much content as you like directly onto your compatible device, perfectly accommodating your on-the-go watching, not to mention its great capability of keeping your little one occupied. And through seven different user profiles per account, everyone in your family can have fun personalising their accounts by selecting their favourite icon or avatar from popular characters from Disney, Marvel, Pixar and Star Wars and set it as their user profile picture, (just watch Dad’s face when he realises that the kids have set up his profile as Thanos!).

With unparalleled family entertainment, all ad free, in stunning 4K quality there’s so many reasons to love Disney+. With a variety of genres, you’ll spend quality time together as a family making memories whilst watching shows from the past, and present, that every member of the family will love. The hardest part will be deciding what to watch!
