## Disney+ Reviews in South Africa

### *---- "Not able to open always shows a message to update available"
From last few days app is not opening and it shows a message saying Update is available but when try to update it App Store shows a message to open. Clicking on opens again shows update available message. Already uninstalled and installed multiple times but that didn’t help.
-- AP9888, 2025-01-20

### *---- "Can’t create an account"
At the point where I have to put in my phone number to get a code, it doesn’t work. I tried multiple times, I tried the calling option, made sure that my phone number is correct and nothing happened.
-- Dyl'99, 2025-01-18

### **--- "Lack of new content"
Disney takes very long to add new content, I can’t access Disney in other countries when I travel.

Unlike Netflix, Amazon etc Disney needs to get with the times and provide new content more frequently and allow access worldwide
-- Jozi Power, 2025-01-16

### *---- "Suddenly blocked - accused of using a VPN"
I’ve used Disney+ since it launched in South Africa. Today I suddenly find myself blocked on both the website and on the app with the error message "Looks like you are connecting through a VPN, proxy or 'unblocker' service. Please turn off any of these services and try again." Nothing has changed in my internet connection since I signed up and I’ve never used a VPN. I connect directly to my WiFi through a router. The only way to contact Disney is through phoning them.

The fact they can their block paying members without warning or any online way to contact them is disgusting.
-- SolarSparkPony, 2025-01-15

### ***** "Disney paradise"
Home of all things Disney.
-- Watida1738, 2025-01-06

### *---- "Glitchy mess in SA! Waste of time takes forever to load, constantly freezes or kicks you out!"
Just the worst! Hasn’t improved in over a year. I have finally given up and cancelled my subscription. They really don’t care to fix it.
-- Mlungsasakhum, 2025-01-04

### ***** "The Next Episode Function."
Yall gotta take a look into that cause the next episode doesn’t start till the LONG MARVEL credits finish. Y'all should also take the skip intro function into consideration.

However this is a really awesome platform with some really awesome shows for everyone to enjoy. Shout out disney fr.
-- SimTheSwag, 2025-01-03

### ***** "Fantastic"
This app is amazing so many wonderful movies and shows
-- Lovellllllllllyyyyyyy, 2025-01-02

### *---- "Impossible to sign up"
I have spent 4 days trying to sign up for Disney plus. I have used a Samsung tv, a Samsung phone, an Apple phone and my laptop with 2 different browsers. I have followed the call centres troubleshooting guidance 3 times and still cannot receive the OTP that I need to start paying for the service. Their “trouble shooting” process is needlessly repetitive and assumes I’m the problem. Took me 4 minutes to sign up for Amazon prime. Also couldn’t give feedback on the website since the options only relate to being a subscriber. Which I have found it impossible to become.
-- Ally-Wag, 2024-12-21

### *---- "Not the same Disney+ as in the US, they gave us the inferior one"
The subscription claims you can get 4K streaming, I can’t get anything above 1080p (which is also compressed btw), even on my MacBook Pro (3024 x 1964 display mind you). The responsiveness of the app keeps messing up. It always forgets playback. It doesn’t reset playback once you’ve finished an episode. The sound quality is bad on some shows, I assume it’s the compression they’re applying to their video. Now and then airplay goes out of sync. The subtitle settings go in and out of sync with airplay. I’ve reported all this to Disney, they don’t care. I also came across an article talking about the resolution issue, they only managed to get 4K on like 1 to in the whole country. No comment from Disney either.
-- GERGE, 2024-12-18

### ****- "Downloading"
The downloading of the movies takes very long and can be a problem like Netflix doesnt take that long than I will rather watch that
-- Sandy396$&/, 2024-12-17

### ***** "Chumasande"
I love everything about Disney
-- Ande1997SouthAfrica, 2024-12-14

### *---- "Horrible App"
Worst streaming app I have ever used with a broken user interface. Almost impossible to use on the Apple TV. Super buggy, randomly keeps track of view progress while mixing up viewed shows between different users, randomly restarts an episode from the start while viewing and constantly signs you out of the app. Pretty ridiculous that you no longer can subscribe via  Apple and only allowed to do this via their website, which just create another opportunity for your credit card info to be stolen/leaked.
-- WilhelmS7, 2024-12-11

### *---- "Absolutely annoying"
I downloaded this app for the first time on my ios. I opened the app FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER and instead of taking me to the home page it says i have an invalid user session when i have not been given the opportunity to try to log into any disney plus account to begin with. I then try to go so the support centre and it says the support centre cannot be opened because it keeps redirecting me! This is so annoying and i have tried EVERYTHING but absolutely NOTHING is working i wish i could give this app 0 stars
-- kaylinjustchillin, 2024-12-10

### *---- "Not that good"
It is kinda bad
-- slay lily, 2024-12-10

### *---- "GoogleTv issue"
I’m currently having a issue with Disney plus on my tv it’s displaying nothing when I enter Disney plus it’s  I don’t pay money for stuff like this pls get it fixed
-- @fixit, 2024-12-03

### ***** "Fantastic Content"
From revisiting old animations to enjoying fascinating documentaries - Disney Plus is the way to go. Thank you for informative, gripping content. Hooked for life!
-- Happy Smarts, 2024-12-02

### ***** "Disney+"
I love the shows,movies and options
-- Pipstert, 2024-11-27

### *---- "Impossible to rewatch a series on same profile"
I have small kids who like to rewatch series and when I try to rewatch a series it remembers that each episode has 30s left and it cycles through the last 30s or every episode 🤦‍♂️.

Even when not wanting to rewatch a series the 30s remaining thing is a problem. When a new episode is out it shows on home view, but plays the last 30s of the previous episode instead of going straight to the new episode.

It is mind boggling that this oversight exists which results in regular frustration when using the app on my AppleTV and that it’s been a problem for such a long time.
-- JonathanL-ZA, 2024-11-23

### **--- "."
I wish! That I could vote this good   Bc I really want to but it doesn’t want me to log in or sign in it just says retry! And it’s not even available in my country
