The process for changing the language settings on the Disney Plus platform is the same regardless of whether you're watching on a phone, tablet, or desktop.
You can view legacy Disney content in four languages — English, Spanish, French, and Dutch, with more language options for Disney Plus originals. Subtitles are available in up to 16 languages, including German, Italian, Japanese, European Spanish, Latin American Spanish, and Cantonese Chinese. It's important to note that every language may not be available for each title.
In addition to changing the language on individual movies and TV shows, you can change the app language in your profile settings. This change will only apply to that specific profile, so different members of your household can use the app in their preferred language.
Here's how to change all of the Disney Plus language features.
