Disney+ subscribers can experience the short film Remembering in a whole new way! Remembering: The AR Experience is a first-of-its-kind companion augmented reality app that lets Disney+ subscribers extend The World of Imagination into their living room. Now streaming on Disney+, Remembering is an original short film directed by Elijah Allan-Blitz and starring Brie Larson. It’s the story of a writer who loses touch with her creative essence and the captivating journey one idea takes to reunite with her. Guided by a mysterious child, the idea travels through a magical world where anything imagined, dreamed or wished is brought to life. It‘s easy to lose touch with this world, but each of us can be inspired by it—if we just remember. With this immersive augmented reality app, Disney+ subscribers can become a part of the story like never before. Use an iPhone or iPad to step into this magical world and rediscover the creative spirit that lives within each of us. Remember—with a little imagination, anything is possible! NOTE: For the best experience, we recommend using this app on an iPhone 12 Pro or Pro Max (and above), an iPad Pro 12.9” 4th Gen (and above) or an iPad Pro 11” 2nd Gen (and above). As the app relies on cutting-edge technology, the experience is optimized for lidar-enabled devices, which excel at sensing the depth and contours of a physical space. It will still work on a range of other devices, but results may vary.

XUXA, the family app, is in development. XUXA’s (pronounced “shoo sha”) first priority is to be a safe place for children of all ages to interact with their extended family members. Every XUXA activity is designed to point toward an in-person family conversation. In the next months we are adding a range of activities and games for the whole family to play alone or with each other. Soon you will find a multimedia trivia game, a curated library of lifestyle content specific to each family member, Bible devotionals, silly car games and more. You may even find some of your favorite characters featured here! XUXA is a free app for everyone. In the future there will be premium features available for a small monthly subscription. You can become a Founding Member now to be the first to get updates and to get a discount.
