What is Disney Plus, and how can I watch it?

Disney+, or Disney Plus, is the subscription and on-demand streaming service from the giant of family entertainment—Walt Disney.

For as long as we can remember, Disney has been one of the biggest names in film and TV. They've been creating movies and shows that appeal to every member of the family. And now, you can stream or download everything this giant of viewing has to offer, direct to your computer, Smart TV, phone or tablet.

Synonymous with family viewing, its catalogue is vast, and with a recent take-over of 21st Century Fox, its catalogue got even bigger.

Check out all your favourites from the Star Wars and Marvel franchises; soak up all your favourite Pixar movies; and if that isn’t enough for you, then there’s plenty more shorts, TV series, animation and live-action entertainment too.

Some of the biggest hits you’ve ever heard of are on Disney Plus. Check it out for Frozen, Mulan, or Hamilton if you’re into your movies or Mandalorian, Encore, or High School Musical if TV shows are more your thing.

If you didn’t already know, Disney is also the majority shareholder in National Geographic, and that means masses of documentaries are available too. Whether they’re from their archives or bang up-to-date, Disney+ has got plenty of options for the science and nature lovers among you.

We love Life Below Zero and One Strange Rock—and if you haven’t watched an episode of The World According to Jeff Goldblum, then you’re missing a treat!

How can I watch Disney Plus with StreamLocator?

If you live in any of the countries where Disney Plus isn’t available yet, then StreamLocator creates a virtual location for you that allows their servers to believe that’s just where you are. With a virtual Canadian location, you’ll be able to access their system and all of the amazing viewing that comes with it.

No complicated settings or software installation required

The big advantage of StreamLocator—that all of our customers love—is how easy it is to set up and access all of the geo-blocked content they want to watch.

The first big plus over other systems is that you don’t need any special software to access geo-blocked services.

That’s right—no apps, no software, no new profiles or DNS settings to install or activate, and there’s no need to remember to turn them on when you need them. Our smart hub is always on, working in the background to recognize when you need it, and when you do, it takes care of switching countries automatically.

Because it works with your WiFi router, it covers every Internet-enabled device in your household. Turn your devices over to the new STREAMLOCATOR network in your WiFi list just once, and that’s all you have to do for continuous overseas viewing for as long as you want it.

With so many ways of viewing international content these days, we wanted to make sure you could use all of them. Even the closed system options that don’t allow VPN or Smart DNS apps, are covered by StreamLocator. It doesn’t affect your download speeds, and, another truly advantageous difference between our service and that of the VPNs and Smart DNS options, we allow you as many connections as you want. And if they’re all in different countries? Don’t worry; it isn’t a problem for StreamLocator.

How to watch Disney Plus from outside Canada

With licensing laws creating all kinds of problems for TV content providers, each country’s catalogues for the same service can be quite different. That means that the shows you could watch on Disney+ in the UK or around Europe aren’t necessarily the same shows you can watch in the USA or Canada, for example.

To work out where you are and which catalogue they’ll let you view, Disney uses a technology called geolocation tracking. What that does, in the most basic terms, is check your IP address to see which country you’re based in.

VPN systems, and Smart DNS services, deliver a virtual location from the country you need to be seen from, getting around the geo-blocks. StreamLocator creates a virtual location too, but it uses a range of different technologies. It makes our system far more efficient, easy to use, and ultra-reliable.

How to register for Disney+ from outside Canada

To create a Canadian Disney+ account, you need to appear to be in Canada. You’ll also need a Canadian payment method, but don’t worry, there’s a simple way around that too.

Once you’ve got StreamLocator switching your location, not only will you be able to access the Canadian Disney Plus platforms, you’ll also be able to create a Disney+ account by switching your Disney+ relocation to the US and purchasing a subscription using StatesCard! -- It's a virtual prepaid card that works with all US services and comes with a US billing address. It's as simple as paying with any card out there!

Once you have your subscription, you can simply switch to Canada and use that same credentials to log in!

Do you need a VPN or DNS to watch Disney+ from outside Canada?

For quite some time, the only reliable way to break through geolocation blockades was using a VPN or Smart DNS service. They were the prime methods to supply servers with virtual locations all around the world.

Now, StreamLocator offers viewers a different way to do the same job—but we’ve made it as easy as possible to get connected, with no loss of speed to your connection, and we’re ultra-reliable where other services are getting blocked far more often and losing their connection.

How to unblock Disney Plus

Unblocking Disney Plus is easy with StreamLocator.

Plug our smart hub into any open port of your home WiFi router.
Complete your account activation (that’s super-simple too).
Connect any device you want to access geo-blocked TV to the STREAMLOCATOR option in your WiFi selection.

That’s it. Our smart hub does the rest. It communicates with the Disney servers to find out which methods of connection are the most reliable and secure and chooses the best technology automatically.

Does StreamLocator allow me to watch Disney Plus for free?

As a subscription service, it doesn’t matter how you connect to Disney+; we're afraid you’ll always have to pay for it.
