The monthly subscription of Disney Plus is only $6.99 while the yearly subscription is $69.99. At this price, you get to enjoy unlimited hours of entertainment from different categories and genres. The best part is that this content doesn’t with those annoying ads!
You can also opt for the bundled package with ESPN+ and Hulu that will cost you $12.99 monthly. That’s such a steal given that you’ll be able to enjoy all three services. If you get ESPN+ on its own, you’ll have to pay $4.99 per month. With Hulu, it will cost you $5.99 per month.

Using a Bluetooth Controller
As mentioned, it’s definitely possible to watch Disney Plus on Android TV. But for those who are using NVIDIA Shield TV or any of those Android TV devices that come with a controller, it’s highly recommended to use a controller that has good triggers for your Disney Plus app. The controller’s rear triggers will serve as the seeking button.
Here’s how it works:
To rewind, simply press the trigger’s left rear and hold until you get the desired rewind time.
If you need to forward, then press the right gear ad hold until you reach the scene that you want.
We actually discovered this by accident when we dropped the controller. When we found out about it, we couldn’t stop using it. Any controller that you can pair with Shield TV using Bluetooth and has rear triggers can work with this trick.
