How to watch Disney + on your television?
If you prefer the more comfortable screen of your TV, this is of course possible. But you have to go through compatible hardware. This could be your TV itself ( Samsung smart TVs produced since 2016, for example, which include the Disney + app). But also other devices on which it will suffice to install the Disney + application: this is the case, in particular, of Apple TV 4K, Xbox One and Playstation 4 consoles , Amazon's Fire TV Stick or Chromecast keys . The big-eared firm has published a relatively clear summary diagram on this subject.

How to watch Disney + with Canal +?
In France, Disney + has negotiated the exclusivity of its offer with the Canal + group. The latter is free to market it to its subscribers ( Disney + is for example included with the Intégrale, Intégrale + and Ciné Séries packs of Canal + ) and to negotiate with other operators such as Orange, Bouygues, Free or SFR. If you are a Canal + subscriber and have the latest generation decoder, you have direct access to the Disney + application on channel 16 as well as to all Disney + content from Canal + on demand (channel 8). For all the other Canal + decoders, only a loop of Disney + programs lasting a few hours is available, on channel 16. To take full advantage of the service on your television, you will therefore need to use the MyCanal application or directly through the Disney + application, and use one of the technical solutions explained in the previous paragraph (Apple TV, PS4, Chromecast, etc.).
How to watch Disney + with SFR?
As explained above, Canal + owns the exclusive rights to Disney +. To date, no agreement has been reached with internet service providers. Disney + is therefore not directly accessible on SFR boxes . Disney + subscribers via Canal + simply have access to a channel 16 program loop from the Canal universe, from any SFR box. But to access the entire Disney + service on your television, you have to go through the MyCanal or Disney + applications via one of the technical solutions explained in the second paragraph (Apple TV, PS4, Chromecast, etc.).
How to watch Disney + with Free?
The problem is the same: Disney + is not yet directly accessible on the Free boxes . Disney + subscribers via Canal + have access to a simple loop of channel 16 programs from the Canal universe from the Free boxes. But to access the entire Disney + service on your television, you have to go through the MyCanal or Disney + applications via one of the technical solutions explained in the second paragraph (Apple TV, PS4, Chromecast, etc.). The only exception: the Mini 4K which allows you to download the Disney + application.
How to watch Disney + with Orange?
Here again, it is impossible to directly access Disney + on the Orange boxes . Disney + subscribers via Canal + have access to a simple loop of channel 16 programs from the Canal universe from any Orange box (Legacy, Live Box, etc.). But to access the entire Disney + service on your television, you have to go through the MyCanal or Disney + applications via one of the technical solutions explained in the second paragraph (Apple TV, PS4, Chromecast, etc.).
How to watch Disney + with Bouygues?
Bouygues is no exception. You cannot directly access Disney + on the operator's boxes. Disney + subscribers via Canal + have access to a simple loop of channel 16 programs from the Canal universe from Bouygues boxes. But to access the entire Disney + service on your television, you have to go through the MyCanal or Disney + applications via one of the technical solutions explained in the second paragraph (Apple TV, PS4, Chromecast, etc.). Two exceptions: the Miami and Miami Ultym boxes which allow direct access to the Disney + application.
