This is rubbish. After following all the procedure mentioned I can install all other apps but not Disney+
Called support and no one reached out to me to fix the issue. Crappy customer support. Crappy TV for the price I paid. TV+ app is a total scam. It makes all other apps hang and volume control gets glitchy.
This may be happening because your TV is not compatible with the latest version of the Application. Get in touch with customer support to troubleshoot this.
I’m having the same issue. Smart hub restarted, restarted internet and nothing. How do I even know if my tv is compatible for the Disney + app. It shows up as a download option and was on my tv before. September is when it stopped working. Was there a Disney update that now makes it incompatible
