You can still access Disney Plus with a Fire TV stick. This is a small device that plugs into the back of your set connecting it to the internet. Each stick comes with easy-to-use software that allows you to download different streaming service apps such as BBC iPlayer, Netflix and, of course, Disney Plus.

If you're not sure which to choose, read our Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max review and Roku Streaming Stick 4K review or if you're still not sure see our Roku vs Fire TV Stick comparison page. For a complete guide to all the available streaming devices, see our round-up of the best streaming sticks.

It may also be worth browsing the latest Amazon Fire TV Stick deals as the online giant regularly drops prices on its own devices.

Almost all of these devices come with an app store, which will allow you to search for and download the Disney+ app. You can either create a Disney+ account through the app or – much easier – register on a browser first and then log in.
