Disney Plus streaming service doesn’t need much introduction as it is one of the best streaming services, like Netflix and Prime Video. The service offers movies and TV shows from Disney, Pixar, Marvel, National Geographic, Star Wars, and more, including sports events. Even though Disney+ provides excellent content on multiple devices, some people find it difficult to access the service on different devices like Android TV and Apple TV.
In this article, we will explain how to activate your device for the Disney Plus account using the DisneyPlus.com website. If you’re confused, let me clarify.
Why Am I Seeing the DisneyPlus.com Login/Begin Screen on My TV?
When you try to access Disney Plus content on a big screen, such as Android TV, Fire TV, or Apple TV, you might see the activation page for the first time. To simplify the login process, the service offers an 8-digit code for authentication instead of the standard username and password login.
This method uses an easy-to-use 8-digit code for authentication, allowing you to avoid the lengthy process of typing usernames and passwords.
How the Code based authentication works with DisneyPlus.com
In code-based authentication, users do not need to input a username and password, as they would on the desktop and mobile versions of Disney Plus. Once you open the app on your TV, you need to activate your Disney Plus subscription on that device by visiting the disneyplus.com/begin page from a mobile or desktop browser. After that, enter the 8-digit code displayed on your TV screen.
Once the code has been entered, authentication will be completed, and you will be automatically logged into your Disney Plus account on the TV. This simplifies the login process, allowing you to access all content easily.
How to Activate Disney Plus on TV (Android, Fire TV, Apple TV)
As mentioned in the previous section, activating Disney Plus using the 8-digit code is simple.
Step 1: Open your TV, whether an Android TV, Fire TV, or an Apple TV.
Step 2: Go to the app store on your device and search for the Disney+ app.
Step 3: Download the Disney Plus app on your TV
Step 4: Open it after downloading and Installing the Disney Plus App on your device.
