    No it won’t, plenty of us are watching already in Europe

    Not officially, it only launched in The Netherlands so far.

    The launch in france has been delayed 2 weeks per government request. Was due to be tomorrow, same as us.

    What was their reason for the request? Bandwidth issues or something?

    I would have thought a service that would entice people to stay at home would be welcomed.

    That's what I'm actually hoping, but preparing for one more sleep all the same.
    If I can be watching DuckTales at midnight though that'd be amazing.

    Countdown on page shows launch is happening at 0100 in Ireland

    Disney Plus.

    Has a list of the movies that will be available here ever been released? 1000 movies sounds great in theory, but if the majority are from Disney's live action back catalogue or similar quality, I'd be less enthused.

    No sign of an app on my LG tv. You'd imagine that would be there today.

    No you wouldn't. It doesn't launch till tomorrow. If you had the app today you would be able to watch Disney today if you availed of the pre order offer. Plenty of posters downloaded the app from the US, paid the Irish pre order & have been watching Disney plus for the last few weeks now

    Is there a phone app that I can cast to my tv...its a samsung smart tv but I'd say slightly too old tobget the app

    samsung ue40ju6400k

    There will an APP for every smart device TOMORROW

    This would only work with a vpn I think.

    I got the app while in the US and my Irish sub worked but once I got home the app said the service wasn’t available here yet.

    VPN or smart DNS. US Disney doesn't have Xmen but Irish Disney is getting 6 Xmen movies. It's always handy to be able to switch between US & EU

    Doesn't make sense as there'll be a different website for Ireland than the US,

    I have subbed but cannot login to the service on my chrome browser as it's geo-blocked so why wouldn't a TV app be the same.

    Why would the app be available now? for what reason? It doesn't launch until tomorrow. The app is useless until the launch. If you preorder a Playstation game the shop has it locked away until the official launch day. They don't give you the box the day before for you to look at. You have another 10 hours or so to wait. You might be able to download the app at midnight but it could be 1am

    Wouldn't you have to set cromecast or router DNS if you want to cast? Setting DNS on phone is only for the phone afaik

    Does anyone know if it'll have 4K content ?

    Trying to sign up and get the tenner off but I can't get past the ZIP code requirement, am I being dumb?

    It launches at 1am, would be good to have the app installed and ready to go.

    Will also prevent potential problems trying to download the app if their app store gets hammered.

    Your game comparison. If you forget physical media , which I myself never buy and pre-order the game online then you can download and install the game before hand and tnen you're ready to go at launch. Very handy.

    Curious... I got off my Virgin Media connection and used mobile data (Three) and the payment registration no longer required a ZIP code. I wasn't using a VPN AFAIK. Anyway, subscribed, ehhh... for the kids obviously.

    It’s not the Life one then is it? I just signed up but that app closes the second I open it on my phone.

    That’s a bit of a jip. No wonder people just download stuff.

    Anyone getting 7 day trial tomorrow will need to pay for the 2nd month to see the 8th episode of The Mandelorian. Anyone just wanting to see this programme can save a month's subscription by holding off another week & a half before starting the trial.
