Streaming Disney Plus on your LG TV is pretty simple, but there are a few things to keep in mind. Depending on the model of your TV, there are different ways to get started. Here are the basic options:
Options for watching Disney Plus on LG TVs
Install the App (LG Smart TVs from 2016 Onwards): If you have an LG Smart TV made in 2016 or later, you can download and install the Disney Plus app directly on your TV. This is the easiest and most convenient method. However, if your TV runs on older versions of NetCast or WebOS (1 or 2), the app won’t be available.
Use an External Streaming Device: For older TVs or those without smart features, an external streaming device is a good option. You can use a Roku, Fire Stick, or Chromecast. Just connect it to your TV’s HDMI port, download the Disney Plus app to the device, and start streaming.
Connect a Laptop via HDMI: Another alternative is to connect your laptop to the TV with an HDMI cable and stream Disney Plus through your browser. While it’s not as convenient as the other options, it works well. Modern laptops also support multiple screens, so you can continue working on your laptop while streaming Disney Plus on your TV.
Let’s look at the options listed above in more detail.
Installing and using the Disney Plus app
To watch Disney Plus through the app on your TV, simply go to the app store and install it. It’s a simple process, and you probably already know how to do it. However, if you run into problems, here are a few common issues and their solutions:
- Can’t find an app: There are two possible reasons. Either your TV is too old or Disney Plus is not available in your region. Check which country you selected when you initially set up your TV. The availability of the app may depend on that setting.
- Problems with yourTV model: Check the model of your TV. Below you will find a list of TV models from 2011 and compatibility with Disney Plus.

Using a streaming device and Laptop
This option is fine if you have an old TV, buy a device you prefer, connect it to your TV, install Disney Plus on it, authorize in the app and you can watch. There should be no nuances with this connection. You need to decide what device to buy, there are devices from $ 30, and there are media players costing several hundred dollars see what you need. More expensive devices have advanced features, the ability to increase memory, USB ports and so on.
Another option is to stream Disney Plus from your computer to your TV using an HDMI connection. Simply open Disney Plus in your browser and display it on the larger TV sc
You might wonder, “Why not just use the TV’s built-in browser?” Unfortunately, this won’t work for older TVs. The browsers on those models are outdated and can only display basic web pages. Even on newer LG TVs, which support modern video streaming protocols, Disney Plus does not work in TV browsers. Disney has confirmed that their service is incompatible with LG TV browsers.
