Very good
I have been using this ap for a while now and I have seen a lot of improvements. First of all there are a bunch of stuff that are accessed to non tv provider accounts, for example there are a bunch of shows were you can watch a whole season for free. Secondly, the media library has been updated, you can watch THE FULL FIRST SEASON of Gravity Falls FOR FEEE (before you could only watch shorts), Phineas and Ferb, Proud Family, That’s So Raven and so much more. Lastly and the most important there are NO ADS. I feel like the app right now is much better because you can also now much disney channel movies for free (prior you could only watch DCOMs if you had a tv provider) and also FULL SEASONS of shows for free. ❤️ it. One think that I would like for the app to have is to watch Free Disney Channel and Disney XD (and Disney Junior although I don’t watch) Live TV, with no need to log in with a TV Provider (although i thjnk that would never happen). Overall this app is very good and I suggest for everyone to install it because there is a variety of options to choose from for different ages (even adults).
P.S. “You can also choose to add subtitles, choose your favourite shows and play games”

is good but 2 iuuses
ok so i love this app, but there is 2 iuuses so first when i am trying to watch like all the seasons it only shows the latest seasons so i really like big city greens my teacher also likes it so S4 is the latest so there's like only 6 eps for me to watch for that season but is really anynoying for them to do that no i would like for them to change it 2 senod reason is beacause so i had disney now for 1 year and i love it but there's a problem so,for the people that have it so i don't think most people relate but anyways so i don't think that we have to put are tv think on it is really anynoeing because that gives you access to watch what on there like was on the tv and i have it for disney junior and disney channel and disney XD so is always on haley's on it and i don't like that but i just go on that for big city greens so i want them to change it we're where we can choose what we want to watch on what's on now so like we can see was ep and seasons the chanel name is on if that makes sense but anyways i think you should get it and is good

READ BEFORE DOWNLOADING
So this app is actually pretty good but it does have its flaws first the ads are a huge problem for me because when I was trying to watch a episode from a show I had to watch two ads for it then it finally ended so I was way more happy but then the intro song or theme song thing came on and I couldn’t skip it so I sat through it but then there was a whole other two ads i had to watch that was really annoying .For the second one it doesn’t always have all the episodes which I think is extremely frustrating because there are a bunch of shows that have episodes I want to watch and I don’t have Disney plus so I can’t watch it there and for my last flaw it’s very glitchy which is also very annoying cause I like to watch episodes when I’m in the shower and pretend I’m the characters and sometimes it will just like kick me out or say “sorry we are having technical difficulties blah blah blah “ but the thing is I like to listen to things in the shower because it helps me not be scared that something’s gonna happen to me and when it glitches then it’s stressful for me cause I have to use myself to keep noise .Besides all these flaws this app is great ..just please please fix these flaws please they are extremely annoying

I LOVE THIS APP
I love this app soooooo much ❤️ 💕 💗 it’s just I have one question y’all have to answer!!!!!! WHEN ARE YALL GETTING MIRE BIG CITY GREEN EPISODES I’VE WATCHED ALL IF THEM YALL HAVE BEEN ADDING MORE BUNK’D THAN BIG CITY GREENS!!!!The reason I asked is because Cricket asked a question to his father and it was “dad are we country folk living in the the city or city folk living in the country?” And his dad answered “well Cricket were the Greens.” And that is kind of like a question I asked my dad I asked “Dad are we country because of mom’s brother (I’m not naming) or was I born country?” And he said “well we are half country and one day we are going to buy a lot of land and own a farm but for now we stay in the house we live in.” So if you ever have a question like me and Cricket just know you are you and that’s ok even if people judge you for who you are and don’t change yourself

My Review
So I’d like to start off with saying, really nice app but the app has a lot of issues such as Having to connect to the internet see I guess it’s only fun when you have internet connection but I’d still love to watch a movie even if the power goes off or if we have internet issues. Second A lot of ads so every time you start a show: ad. When you start a game: ad. In random parts of movies: ads. And sometimes the ad has 3 ads and it’s very annoying . Third it has to ask for your tv provider and I always have to ask my dad after a month or so it would be really nice if you type it in it stays like that forever. Fourth: having to only have the most recent or whatever shows/movies to where it only has like 5 movies I want it to be like Disney+ with unlimited movies. Fifth: I want there to have 2-10 accounts because My sisters phone is broken and that’s all she has and we have to share accounts and and we like different things so it is difficult to watch smth when your sister wants to watch something else.
That’s all please fix all these issues.
That’s all please fix all these issues.

AMAZING APP! But.... :(
so first off it’s a great app!!!! I love the shows and it gets me so exited that a new episode so coming out each week on some of the shows...
For some shows like there are a lot of episodes but you have to wait a few months to watch them and I don’t like that. And I got the thing where you ask a parent to sign in thing and it ✌🏻 unlocked all the shows ✌🏻 ya well it doesn’t... I tried watching the shows that was locked and I was jumping for joy I was so excited that I could watch theme and watch the movies will it didn’t work.... and I was trying agin and agin but it didn’t work so I just gave up on that, and I still use it and if you ask me I would say to change a few things
First. More episodes sooner like 2 every week
Secant. More movies cus I am never able to watch the movies it’s all was locked. Thirdly. Let us watch live tv on it. And the games are outstanding the games are really fun and awesome, but I would say make some games for older ppl like teens and tweens. THANK YOU! #LoveThisApp!

Obsessin with this app
I love this app so many fun things to do! See what’s in live tv, play games, take quizzes, and watch the Disney Channel original movies! But what I would love is if they could air some of their old shows! Like: Shake it up, K.C undercover, and many more but as Sharpay says in HSM “Out with the old and in with the new” And also the live TV is a bit behind like when I go into the Channel on my TV it is fine but when I go into the app it is way behind Idk if that’s a “me” problem but it’s something that would be nice to know that it is caught up and I’m not missing anything and I have one recommendation, At the beginning when your making your account they ask for your b-day and it calculates how old you and by how many quarters you are and this might a big task but I think it’s that at the beginning too you put in your favorite Disney star and it’s like a little chart with The stars name and what show/ DCOM they are in and we get to pick three of our favorite stars and on our exact b-day one of our favorite stars says happy birthday or whatever now we could put a block for parents just in case they don’t want that but it’s something I just thought about or the app could say happy birthday to you but yeah just seems fun (JUST AN IDEA) besides that I love the Disney now app! It’s One of my most used apps! Fun exciting and the movies are the best keep doing what y’all are doing Disney now! ❤️

Hi there! Thank you so much for the great review. If there's anything you can think of or suggest that we can improve on within the app to help improve the review score you gave us, just let us know; we're always excited to hear new ideas from our guests.
Good, but has many flaws
Great idea for an app, but it has some bummer factors. First off, it only has the latest shows. It adds some great, but it loses a show when it gains a show so there are only like 4 shows at a time on some. Some have a lot like Coop and Cami, but some like Sydney to the Max don’t. Second off, some of the shows( on top of there not being that many shows) don’t even play. They don’t work, so most of the new shows that I wait forever to finally come onto DisneyNOW don’t even work so I have to wait again and Sydney to the Max and Just Roll with It are a few examples of the very slow shows that take forever to get new ones. Pls try to increase the amounts of shows u have at once and not repeating so keeping shows not losing them or make it so that I can at least watch all the shows that are on DisneyNOW. Thank you for reading my review and I hope to see better results from DisneyNOW. I think DisneyNOW is good beyond that which has way more good then bad but this review is really long already so I will skip saying all the goods! :) A new thing that came up is the update on DisneyNOW, but it isn’t allowing me to update. It also says I cannot use the app until I update, which is annoying and sad, because I like this app, but I can’t use it.

TV Provider infinite loading screen.
So it’s been a while since I used the Disney app since I’m able to watch most of the Cartoons, Movies and TV Shows on my TV. Since I heard they were doing Live TV now on the app (which that could’ve always been a thing i dont know why I’m just finding out about it now) I got extremely excited and wanted to try it out immediately. Since it’s been so long since I used the app I was asked to sign into my TV Provider, not a big deal at all I was fine with doing it. So I use Directv as my TV Provider and once I put all of my account information in it continuously loads, I put my Directv email and password in but it says “verifying” so I wait and guess what? Its still “verifying” after me waiting patiently for 20 minutes. I didn’t exit out of the app at all and don’t let my phone turn off then I wait 30 minutes the next time and guess what? Still “verifying” it’s extremely annoying I was just wanting to test out the Live TV function, new or not i had never seen this function but I might never if this continues. Please fix I know it’s not a big deal since I have Live TV on my Provider but I just want to see it.

Overall great app
I think that this app is great but there are a few problems. You have to sign in with your tv provider to unlock all of the episodes. I’m not saying that’s a bad thing, I was just confused at first and so was my brother. Also there aren’t any old episodes which is sort of annoying because then I have to go to a Disney+ or something like that to watch other episodes. When a season ends it’s only up for a few days, but then after that you can only watch 4 episodes or so. I get pretty frustrated about that. A really good thing about Disney Now is that is that whenever I’ve been watching a show lately and I want to see if there are new episodes I can just look and I can easily watch it. To everyone who has Disney+ you should know that the latest episodes of Disney Channel shows come onto Disney Now before they come onto Disney+. The games are fun, but they take a long time to load and half of the time they don’t work. I will say that when they do work they are super fun to play! There aren’t a lot of DCOMs on Disney Now but there are the newer ones. Overall this game is amazing! I really hope that you choose to get this game and have as much fun with it as I did!

Login Issues
I’ve been using this app for a while and overall think it’s a great app to have. But there are some login issues. For starters they have personal accounts and that’s great, but there only on one device. You can’t sign into an account you can only create a new one. Also in order to access to full content you have to have a cable provider. Now that’s not so bad, but with the launch of Disney+ they should have some updates by now. Instead of just being able to sign in with your TV provider, you should also be able to sign in with your Disney+ membership. The app also doesn’t include a whole bunch of DCOMS. There is only one free movie on the whole site! Now let’s talk about the games. They are totally fun and vibrant. My only problem with the games is that they take up a lot of storage. Currently I only use 2 of five GB and the app still tells me to clean my phone. After that I decided to play a different game, I went back to the game with out clearing any of my storage and it said I could play. This makes me think that the app wants you to delete other apps on your phone so Disney now will be one of less than 10 apps on your phone and consume most of your time. But considering the app is 100% free to download and use I think this is an okay platform and will give it a 2 star review. (I was going to give it a 1 star review but my cousin really likes the app)

3 stats aren’t a lie. ( READ UNTIL THE END!!)
I love this app, but it shouldn’t ask for your TV provider. I put mines in, but the unlocked videos never worked. And, for shows like Sofia the First, it only has the latest season. Not any of the other ones. Plus, the locked video never unlock like on Coop and Cami. Whenever there are adds, that’s okay with me, but don’t put an add right in the middle of a song like in Zombies 2 because it just messes the whole thing up. I love the intro of the app, but it doesn’t work without internet connection. The favorites area is very glitchey as well. Another bad thing about this is that you can only create one account, and you can’t have multiple ones. I have it on my iPad, and my sister wants one too but her iPad is broken so we have to share accounts, which is bad because she likes different things. What happened to the old Disney app? I wanna know! The Dcom doesn’t have movies from like, 2 years ago, such as Zombies, only the latest ones. You might think that I don’t recommend this, but that’s wrong. I love this as well. I’m only explaining the bad things just so you’re notified. I love the sound it makes when you click on things, and the birthday surprise gets kids really engaged in the app. There are a variety of shows, and I love them! I just wish most of the videos weren’t locked. Anyway, I really hope this helps! 😁

You almost had me.., but then there was that slip
I was confused why Disney Channel doesn’t show their reruns anymore but then I remembered they had a app. So I thought to myself they would have their shows Young and old on there… Boy was I wrong they didn’t have Wizard of Waverly Place, Ant farm, Liv and Maddie, Austin and Ally, Dog with a Blog, Best Friends Whenever, Good luck Charlie, and Sonny with a chance. These are some good shows that many people want to see and if it’s not gonna be shown on Disney Channel at least need to be shown on their app. If the app had these shows I would’ve probably given this review a five but it doesn’t. One more thing I would like to talk about that isn’t really about the app but about the channel. Why have you guys stopped showing reruns of recent shows. For example K.C. Undercover, Stuck in the middle, and even Liv and Maddie. Dove Cameron is still doing descendants series and her show disappeared from the channel. I just find that a little disrespectful for other stars that are still working with Disney Channel but their shows aren’t even showing on it. Now even Gravity Falls and the whole Lab Rats series is gone. I know now there is Disney+ but not everyone what’s to pay. Anyway work on these five star you will have and many other views. bye sis 🖐🏾

UPDATE! 2 stars back to 5!
UPDATE: Thank you Disney team for reaching out in a short amount of time! We are back to “regular programming,” and just in love with this app again. They gave us the exact steps we needed to take. Few ads, and we have access to all of our daughter’s favorite TV show episodes. AND so far no glitches have even popped up. Thank you!!!
First review: We loved this app just a couple weeks ago. There have been a couple time where we would have to uninstall and reinstall just to get the glitches to stop. Our daughter loves Disney Junior so it’s a huge help whenever we have to do things around the the house or just need her distracted for a couple of minutes. However, recently, we haven’t been able to sign in to our TV Provider. It won’t even let us go to the sign in screen! It just does it its little Mickey loading thing and stops. I can clock sign in all I want, but it goes nowhere! She does have an iPad and it works but not everywhere we go has WiFi. Please fix this issue!

A waste of data/storage
Terrible, this app refuses to function properly at least for my family. On all of our devices whether it be iPad, iPhone, etc it doesn’t work. We’ve updated every time when it’s required and we’ve uninstalled the app and reinstalled several times. My 2 year old daughter is obsessed with Mickey and the gang and it’s so unfortunate we can’t get this app to work with or without WiFi. Nick Jr. and other kid apps work perfectly so it’s not my devices. We have frontier and we’re CONSTANTLY being kicked off or logged out. Just got a notice to update from sep 26 (yeah we don’t even try to use this app anymore that’s why we’re late for the new update. Stupidly, I tried again and got my daughter so excited for nothing. I’m trying to read new terms and agreements and it starts to load and does nothing. Try’s to log in again, it does nothing, the page won’t even change. I’m over it. For the amount of money our family alone puts into Disney it’s a shame we can’t seem to access the mobile app. Uninstalling this app after this review, 2 years is a long time to wait for something to work properly. Anyways if anyone else is experiencing this I’ve been using noggin and nick jr app. It doesn’t have a live tv option (I think) but it works.

New Ad behavior ruined bedtime routine
As parents to a 19-month-old, we have loved using the Disney Now app, and especially ad bedtime. The lullaby shorts are just so sweet, and it was one of the highlights of our evening, just watching the whole list, one after another, while our sweet girl settled down. These run generally 1min - 1.5mins each, so they were also manageable in case we needed to bail for whatever reason without it being jarring, which is important when our dynamic kiddo is finally getting calm.
But then, for whatever reason, Disney has started running 30-second advertisements after every bit of content. Every. Single. One. And it’s always a high-energy ad for T.O.T.S. or Target, so it negates any of the calming effect the lullabies were having. I get that someone probably just made a blanket programming decision to play an ad after each viewing of chosen content, but 30 seconds of ads for every minute of content in this case is absolutely ridiculous. We’ve had to remove this section of our bedtime routine because of it, which was a huge bummer. And I can honestly say that we mostly had been using the app for this, so this development has crippled its functionality for us.

Stop recreating the original Disney movies.
This app is really great to use when you want to watch some Disney shows and movies. They have all sorts of channels that you would have to wait to come on on the original Disney channel on cable. You can easily just click on a image of a show on the Disney now app and start watching for FREE. All you have to do is connect your T.V too the app and you can watch all of the shows. I don't have a cable T.V. so it makes it hard to watch all the shows that deem "locked", with a little blue 🔒 on the bottom. But, that is totally fine because I can still watch some of the shows when they unlock. This is a really good app and I do recommend it to the people who are thinking into download this. But, Disney, stop recreating the orginal movies. Like the lion King and beauty and the beast. I mean the shows you are recreating are great and all, but then everyone wants to watch that instead and it just takes away the whole orginal Disney movie purpose. So, sure re-create the lion movie but, just stop please. Not cool for the feature generation. And we only need one version of those movies.

Horrible
I’m sorry if my title comes off strong , but I don’t like the app anymore. When I first got it I thought it was cool that I could see all of my favorite shows from my childhood , but I recently started watching more frequently and all of a sudden I was about to watch the next episode and after the adds the screen just turned black. So I thought it was my phone so I closed out all of my apps and reopened the app to try again, but the same thing happened again. I wasn’t about to loose faith in the app so I powered off my phone still thinking that the problem was my phone, after turning back on my phone and opening up the app again the problem had not resolved. I decided that maybe It was the app so I deleted it and downloaded it again. When I opened the app after I had got it again and chose my shows again I went to the show I had been watching and there were only two episodes. That’s what made me really mad. So I decided to see what else I had lost in the app. I found one show that had all of the episodes, so I tried to watch it and after all that work and frustration it did the same thing that made me delete the app. That’s why my title stands as it is. This app still needs a lot of improvement.

Needs lots of work
I think DisneyNOW is a great way to watch Disney shows. I only gave it two stars is because I have some problems with it that if the developers fixed it would make the app a lot better. My first problem is the ads. There are to many and the same ones every time. I went to play a game and there was like three ads. I know that the ads are getting a little better but think of some new ads please. My second problem is that the shows take a long time for new episodes. I am always waiting for a new episode. I know it might be hard but please this is one of my biggest problems. My third and final problem is that it always signs me out when I click the button to keep me signed in. I know that I said my third problem was my last one well I lied. My fourth problem is that it takes away shows. I know you can’t have to many but seriously it gets annoying. Also it takes away episodes so you have like episodes 1 7 and 10 this is just an example. It is really annoying when it takes episodes away cause sometimes I’m behind them I can’t even watch it. That is all I have right now but please fix these problems then maybe I would give DisneyNOW 5 stars.
