Guide to Sharing a Disney+ Account

Sharing your Disney+ subscription can be a great way to save on streaming costs while enjoying a vast array of content, from Disney classics to Marvel movies and National Geographic documentaries. However, it’s essential to be aware of the recent changes to Disney’s account-sharing policies and how to navigate them.

When it comes to managing your Disney+ account, you can create up to seven individual user profiles, each with its own viewing history and personalized recommendations. You can even set up child-friendly profiles with restricted content access and add a PIN code for added privacy and control.

In terms of devices, Disney+ allows you to register up to 10 devices per account. The number of simultaneous streams depends on your plan, with the Standard plan allowing for 2 devices and the Premium plan for 4.

It’s important to note that Disney now limits account sharing to devices within your primary residence. If you want to share your account with someone outside your household, you’ll need to pay for “extra access,” which grants access to only one external device per account. This feature comes at an added cost, starting at €4.99 per month, but it’s a legal way to split your subscription and save money.

To ensure safe account sharing, it’s best to stick to trusted friends or family members. If someone no longer needs access, remember to delete their profile and update your password to prevent unauthorized use. By following these best practices, you can make the most of your Disney+ subscription while staying within the rules.
