Download your favorite Disney+ movies and shows right on your iOS device

Disney+ is finally here, bringing all the Disney content we can handle, including offerings from Pixar, Lucasfilm, Marvel, National Geographic, and Fox. Since there are decades worth of stuff to watch on this streaming service, your watch list is bound to be huge, and viewing all of those shows and movies is sure to eat up your data if you're not on Wi-Fi. Fortunately, there is the option of downloading videos directly to your device (as long as you have the space for it), which is insanely helpful.

How to change your Disney+ download quality

However, the download setting is on the lowest quality by default, so we're going to want to change that first.

1. Launch Disney+ on your iPhone or iPad.
2. Tap your Profile icon in the bottom right corner of the screen.

3. Select App Settings.

   

4. If you don't want to wait until you're on Wi-Fi to download, change the Download Over Wi-Fi Only to OFF.
5. Tap on Video Quality.

6. Select the quality of video you prefer.

   • Under each one, it tells you how many hours of content you could download at each rate before your device storage is full.

   

By default, it's set on Standard for fastest downloads and the least amount of storage. Medium is a faster download and less storage, but High is the slowest download and requires the most storage.
