LG has announced that Disney+ is now available on LG’s innovative in-car infotainment platform in South Korea, and it will follow out in the United States and other markets at a later date.  

To access the content via the LG ACP platform, you will require a Disney+ subscription. This is the latest popular app to be available on the LG ACP, which also includes Netflix, YouTube, TikTok, Baby Shark World for Kids, Stingray Karaoke, Play.Works, LG Channels, El Dorado, and Gold Tower Defence.

Brad Oh, president of LG Electronics Component Solutions USA, said in a statement:

“Now, with the addition of Disney+, LG’s in-vehicle infotainment solution gives passengers an even wider range of high-quality content to choose from during their journeys.  Further expanding our webOS automotive content ecosystem complements our unique software solutions enabling automakers to enhance the in-car experience in exciting, new ways.”

Disney+ is the dedicated streaming home for movies and shows from Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, National Geographic and general entertainment content brand, Star. Disney+ offers an extensive library of beloved classics and an ever-growing collection of exclusive originals. Subscribers can enjoy some of the greatest franchises such as Disney’s Frozen, The Avengers, Star Wars, Inside Out and Toy Story, long-standing drama series including Grey’s Anatomy and Criminal Minds, as well as recent releases such as FX’s Shogun, Star Wars: The Acolyte, The First Slam Dunk, The Kardashians and more.

Oh also explained that the LG Automotive Content Platform powered by webOS is the centrepiece of LG’s PlayWare entertainment system, which enhances the in-vehicle infotainment experience through the delivery of ultra-high-definition content and superior audio quality. Leveraging LG’s partnerships with major streaming apps, sports and news channels, PlayWare brings the LG smart TV experience into the car, displaying content in stunning 4K Ultra HD resolution for passengers’ viewing enjoyment.

One of five core solutions in the LG AlphaWare software suite designed to deliver immersive in-cabin experiences, PlayWare also uses advanced AI Audio technology, adapted from LG smart TVs, to upgrade audio content into convincing spatial sound, making every journey an immersive auditory event.

Roger’s Take:  It’s great that Disney+ is now available via LG cars, though it’s weird how long it’s taken since Telsa added a Disney+ app years ago.  Though I’m not gonna lie, the idea of having streaming apps built directly into screens on cars, still feels a little weird, but for younger passengers, this will no doubt be of great use for parents to keep kids entertained on long trips.

Will you be using the Disney+ app on the LG ACP platform?  Let me know on social media!
