News Round Up 2019

Thanks! We were just trying to figure this out. I'm actually a little surprised we aren't able to download it now......I'm picturing all of us downloading the app then watching the countdown!

Althought knowing Disney IT, more likely all of us will try to download the app at the same time, their system crashes, and a bunch of threads get started related to the app not downloading

So we are trying to figure out how to watch Disney+. We have a smart TV and hubby was looking today to see if there was an app to download for it. We have Amazon Prime, Netflix, etc.....but no where was the Disney+ app. Any ideas how this will make itself known?

That's where I'm at as well. I have Roku and a smart TV, but I can't find it anywhere.

We use a Firestick and Wii-U (also have a PS4) to access Youtube, Prime Video, Netflix, and Hulu. As of now, I'm planning to mostly watch from my computer since that's what I do most of the time anyway. Hopefully Amazon and Disney will get a deal worked out sooner rather than later so I can use my Firestick. It's really the easiest for us.

We have Roku too - I'm assuming we will wake up on 11/12 and it will just be there, like Christmas morning!

Disney IT has nothing to do with it. You're downloading from the servers of whatever app store your device uses.

Hope you are having a good time!

Did you still find Epcot enjoyable even with all the construction walls up? We will be there next May.

Since we are allowed 10 devices hubby and I will probably put it on our computers, our phones, 2 TVs and let the kids fight over the remaining 4. We tend to watch most of the TV from our bedroom television.....and at 60" it's the biggest one we have! Oops, wait, I need to put Disney + on my tablet too....so it looks like the kids will have to fight over 3 spots, lol!

While that may be true - I still feel like Disney IT will mess it up ... even if technically not possible for them to do so

We have our Roku TV in the living room and the TV in the playroom (that uses a Roku box). Then my phone, my wife's phone, and our computer. I think that is it, unless it is able to be on Kindle Fires

I honestly haven’t spent a lot of time there this trip. It’s interesting and I loved the experience center. Will be back tonight for Epcot forever.

I've been here since Wed and it's not been as busy as expected so that helps. We left through the IG after fireworks last night so I'm not sure how it would be with a lot of people leaving at once. Otherwise they are there but not an issue to me.

LOVE thr skyliner though. Getting back to pop last night was so easy compared to back after mnsshp friday. We ended up taking the bus to aoa that night.

I went from planning zero days at Epcot to 2 half days. I'll be sure to report back at some point.

I don't know if it's news or not, but I saw the Dis review of Docking Bay 7 on the "cringe" subreddit for the absolutely ridiculous reaction of one of the vloggers being bothered by a Stormtropper for "interrupting" their video

Thanks! I didn't see that

Not saying there's anything to this but 3 of the fuel rod machines are out. I know the one at DHS yesterday was sent out for maintenance per the CM that asked if I was looking for it. It'd worked fine Fri and she didn't know what was wrong.

Tried to use the one at the IG yesterday but it was also gone. In fairness this one was frozen on Thurs so I could see it, didn't ask anyone because I knew there was one by SSE and it was there.

Just now I tried to swap at Pop before our ME at 3:35 (never taking an early flight again) and it was gone. I'd used it yesterday morning on our way to EMH at DHS and it'd been working fine.

The one at Casey's worked fine last night. Maybe it's normal for them to service multiple machines at once and maybe something did happen to them all it's just weird since I've never seen them disappear before. Maybe it's also just bad timing but it still makes me wonder.
