    Description:
    The Disney Plus app comes to Panasonic TVs, two years after the streaming service launched.

    FULL STORY ======================================================================

    The Disney Plus app is now available on Panasonic TVs , finally amending one of the biggest issues with the massive streaming service in the UK namely, that anyone with a Panasonic TV couldnt get it.

    Any 4K Panasonic TVs released from 2017 onward that feature the My Home
    Screen operating system will now carry the Disney Plus app meaning anyone
    who bought a Panasonic screen in the past four years will be supported. Specifically, any TV model that starts with EZ, EX, FZ, FX, GZ, GX, HZ, HX, JZ, or JX is getting the app, so it covers both OLED and LCD screens from the Japanese TV maker.

    The support extends across the UK and Europe, as well as Australia,
    Singapore, New Zealand, Canada and Latin America though not the US, where Panasonic doesnt sell commercial sets. Marvel's Eternals : release date, trailer, cast, plot and more How to watch the Marvel movies in order Watch

    Its somewhat astonishing that it took this long, really: the Disney Plus app launched in late 2019, and was broadly present on pretty much every other smart TV operating system and streaming stick platform within the following year. The fact that the Panasonic TV range for 2021 launched without it was a real disappointment.

    Even if a cheap streaming device could fix that issue in the short term, anyone paying thousands for a OLED TV from Panasonic a brand that prides itself on a true at-home cinema experience, and seems like a natural fit for
    a streaming service that houses massive blockbuster franchises like the
    Marvel movies and Star Wars would no doubt feel put out.

    With huge TV shows like Loki and WandaVision having landed this year, its
    been a shame that Panasonic TV owners havent automatically had a way to tune into the action though its obviously not too late to go back and visit programming thats still on the service.

    With Panasonic now brought into the fold, though, its really only Hisense thats yet to get full support while you will find Disney Plus on Hisense
    Roku TVs and Android TVs, screens with its proprietary Vidaa U system have no such luck.

    We have to remember that Disney Plus is still a relatively new service, compared to the likes of Netflix and Amazon Prime Video. However, considering the scale and impact Disney Plus already has, it really doesn't pay to get left behind without it. Everything wrong with Disney Plus
