Disney+ has become a household name since its 2019 debut, offering a treasure trove of content spanning Disney classics, Pixar wonders, Marvel superhero sagas, Star Wars epics, National Geographic explorations, and 21st Century Fox productions. As your family’s go-to streaming platform, it not only provides a gateway to nostalgia but also caters to a variety of tastes. But did you know you can explore this content wonderland in different languages? In this guide, we’ll walk you through the simple process of changing the language on Disney+, making your viewing experience even more magical.
How to change the language on Disney+: A Step-by-Step Guide
According to the official Disney+ support page, adjusting the language settings is a breeze:
- Log in: Access your Disney+ account using your email and password. If you’ve forgotten your password, a quick reset through the Disney+ website will get you back on track.
- Start watching: Choose a movie or TV show and start streaming.
- Access language settings: Once your content begins, keep an eye on the upper right side of the screen and the player UI. You’ll notice a box icon – click it.
- Choose your language: A language selection menu will appear. Use it to pick your desired language and subtitle options.
Voila! The Disney+ app saves your preferences to your profile, ensuring subsequent videos start in your preferred language. With up to seven profiles per Disney+ subscription, including a kids profile option, language customization is a family affair. These instructions are applicable to PC and Mac users as well, with the box icon appearing in the upper-right corner of your web browser.
Disney+ caters to global audiences with subtitles and audio dubs available in 16 languages, including English, Spanish (Spain or Latin America), French, Dutch, Cantonese, Dansk, Portuguese (Portugal and Brazil versions), German, Italian, Japanese, Norwegian, Finnish, Swedish, Icelandic, and Polish.
However, keep in mind that not all content supports all languages. While newer releases boast comprehensive language options, some older or niche programs, like the 1940 version of Swiss Family Robinson, may only be available in English. Your language customization success may hinge on your viewing preferences.
Additional Tips for Specific Devices:
- Roku: Although not mentioned on the Disney+ support page, Roku users can access the Audio menu by pressing the “*” button on the Roku remote.
- Apple TV: For users of newer Apple TV streaming devices, swipe down on your Siri Remote’s touchpad to reveal audio and subtitle settings.
Enhance your Disney+ experience by unlocking the linguistic richness it offers. Whether you’re exploring the depths of Finding Nemo or soaring with Aladdin, changing the language on Disney+ is your passport to a multilingual adventure.
