How watch Disney Plus on the big screen without a smart TV
Want to watch Disney Plus on the big screen but don't have a smart TV? Here’s how you can do it.

There are fewer things more relaxing than sitting back on the couch and watching a favourite movie. You can watch all of the Disney Plus library on a smartphone or tablet, but getting that content onto your big screen takes a bit more effort if you don't have the right brand of smart TV.
While some smart TVs such as Samsung, Sony/Android and LG smart TVs let you install a Disney Plus app directly, what happens if you don't have one of those smart TVs?
Well, there are still many ways you can watch Disney Plus on your TV without having to buy a whole new set.
Here's how to set up Disney Plus for viewing on your TV.
Don't forget to sign up to Disney Plus if you don't already have an account. You can sign up for $13.99 a month or $139.99 for a year.
You can use Google Chromecast to stream content from your iOS or Android mobile device to a TV.
There are 2 ways to watch Disney Plus on your TV with an Apple TV device. First, you can just download the Disney Plus app from the App Store, log in to your account and watch direct via there if you have a 4th Generation Apple TV or later. The most recent Apple TV supports 4K content, so you can watch Disney Plus content at a higher resolution if your TV supports it.
You can also stream content from your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch to your Apple TV via AirPlay. Much like with Chromecast, you open the Disney Plus app on your device and select what you want to watch. Then tap on the AirPlay icon near the top corner of your screen and choose your Apple TV from the list of available AirPlay devices. The content playing on your device will now be showing on your TV
If you don't have a streaming device connected to your TV, then you can always directly connect a computer, phone or tablet to your TV over HDMI.
Connect your computer, phone or tablet to your TV using an HDMI cable. Switch your TV to the appropriate HDMI input and your content should appear on the big screen. As HDMI carries both video and audio, the soundtrack should come through your speaker system as well.
In the case of phones and tablets, assuming your device does support HDMI output, you may need an adaptor between your device and the HDMI cable such as a USB-C-to-HDMI or lightning-to-HDMI converter.
Amazon's Fire TV Stick is similar to Google Chromecast. It connects to your TV through HDMI and allows you to wirelessly stream content from mobile devices to your TV. But it also allows you to install apps, such as Disney Plus, so you can watch content without using your smartphone or tablet.
While older versions of the Fire TV Stick supported HD video, newer versions will deliver 4K content to your TV if it supports the higher resolution format.
Once you've installed the Fire TV Stick, install the app. You can search for Disney Plus using Alexa or download the app from the Amazon Appstore and remotely install the app on your device.
Log in to your Disney Plus account and enjoy the show.
Disney Plus is compatible with PS4 and PS5, as well as Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. To get started, install the Disney Plus app from the respective section.
