Getting Disney+ on Roku Express 4K+

Jump to solution

Hey guys,

so my country (Lithuania) finally got Disney+ available, but I can't find it on my Roku Express 4K+.

Tried to use web store on my PC, but it just goes to home page of the store if I try opening Disney+ application (I installed Netflix that way awhile back ago).

As I don't live in UK, US or Canada, the Search option is not available on my TV, so by looking manually I could not find Disney+ app.

Any help or suggestions. I am bummed out 😕

Roku isn't sold or supported there through any official channels. How that impacts Disney+ is as follows.

Many app developers, including Disney, will not support or offer their app in a region where Roku itself is not supported. Some developers, such as Netflix, do support practically everywhere, but most do not. Disney chose to not support a Roku app in your region. Again, that was a decision Disney made, not Roku. Should Disney update the app to work in your region, it will work and be available in the Channel Store. Unless and until they do, it will be be available there.

Keep in mind this has nothing to do with Disney+ or any other service being available there. Each platform is different.

Check the software revision of your Roku device.

I’m into videotapes and old electronics stuff, including extenders, converters and analog 4:3 TV sets (which are obsolete these days), and Miss Bianca is my favorite character in Disney’s The Rescuers (1977) and its sequel, The Rescuers Down Under (1990).

@Darwin3 Are you in the United States or a region where Roku supports Disney +?
