The streaming platform comes with an extensive catalog, with the Marvel Universe and the Star Wars saga as two of their main weapons, but also a huge selection of movies and series, Disney, in addition to documentaries for National Geographic, so there is something for all tastes.

The streaming service with Disney left him with good feelings from the beginning, for its good functioning, good catalogue and an easy to use interface in your application. That is why Disney+ has everything to be a success, especially now that we have to be in the house all day. Yes, the quality of the reproduction will be smaller temporarily, for the high consumption.

We tried Disney+ on Android: this is the streaming service Disney

We have tested Disney+ the streaming service of the american giant in Android, and these are our impressions about it.

To be able to get the most out of this platform, there are a number of tricks, or configurations, that we can use. We are going to allow significantly better use of the same at all times and so enjoy that which we want.

Creates profiles

One of the advantages of Disney+ is that you can create up to seven profiles in the same account. Therefore, the whole family is going to be able to view the content they want, each one in his profile, and you can view several profiles at the same time contents in the same. When you’re watching something, if you leave, when you return to the app it is in the moment where it stopped. So it is ideal to have each your profile, so that no one alter what you’re seeing. The profiles are created in this way:

Opens Disney+ on your phone.
Tap the icon with a character, the last one located at the bottom right of the screen.
Click on Create a profile.
Add the photo you want to use for that profile.
Put a name to that profile.
Repeat the process to create the profiles you want (maximum 7).

Download content for offline viewing

Like many streaming platforms, Disney+ we can download content to view offline to the Internet. Ideal if you want to see at another time, or if we have to carry with us to some site. The downloads are quite fast and can in this way always have content available to view offline. To download an episode of a series or a movie, just follow these steps:

Opens Disney+.
Look for the serial or the movie that you want to (from the home screen or using the search engine).
Click on the download button, the second on the right.
Waiting to complete the download.
Go in the download section to view it.

To avoid surprises, such as downloading something using mobile data and consume the rate, we can configure that downloads in the application are performed only using the WiFi. A way to avoid spending data unnecessarily. The steps to do this are:

Opens Disney+.
Tap your profile photo.
Enters Application Configuration.
Tap Download only over WiFi to enable this option.

Create playlists

As each one has its own profile in the application, it is possible to create your own playlists. It is possible that there is a lot of content that interest you and you want to have them saved, so you can see when you want. Disney+ is going to allow you create your own play lists, adding movies, documentaries, series or episodes individually. So, you will have them always accessible on your profile.

Tap play.

Choose the playback language and subtitles

As I discussed months ago, when we had the chance to try Disney+, it is possible to choose the playback language and subtitles. The practice, all the content (all that I looked at have this option), enable you to choose the audio language and put subtitles or not in the same. It is a good option if you want to see a series or movie in its original version, but with subtitles. This is something to keep in mind and that lets you adapt to each one.

Opens Disney+.
Enter in the serial or movie you want to watch.
Tap play.
Once inside the playback, tap the square icon in the top right.
Choose the output language and the subtitle language.

Select the quality of playback and download

Despite the fact that on a temporary basis, due to the enormous consumption in Europe, Disney+ comes with a reproduction quality lower, when watching content or downloading them, we can choose the quality of playback or download at all times. For example, to avoid surprises, we can make the reproduction is made by WiFi, and have a higher quality playback, or you can view it with mobile data, but have a lower quality.

It is also an option to be able to configure downloads, choosing the quality the same. We can choose the quality of this download, to when we go to see the content on the phone. The steps for configuring these settings are:

Opens Disney+.
Tap your profile photo.
Go in account Settings.
Tap mobile data Use and choose within this section the option you want to use.
Return to the settings.
Tap Quality of the discharge.
Choose the desired quality.
