Last year I reported that Disney was planning to combine Disney+ and Disney+ Hotstar as one application. However, this matter was not continued because it wanted to focus on Disney+ as a Disney and Hotstar original content platform where there is local original content.
Recently in the spirit of wanting users to be more comfortable using their service, Disney+ Hotstar has been updated with a new interface that is more user-friendly. This interface tries to be Disney+ but with Hotstar elements that everyone has been comfortable with.
It's just that this new app is only accessible to beta users on Android and lucky Apple TV users.
Recently my Android device has started receiving interface updates for Disney+ Hotstar. This update is said to be based on Hotstar X which uses a more comfortable interface, fast and smooth double performance, supports profiles, can manage other devices that have logged in using the same account, as well as easier to manage subscriptions and application settings including parental control and for downloads.
Updates to Apple TV also provide a user experience closer to Disney+. Only for now profile support is still limited to one user and one profile for children. Then only on the television there is 4K streaming support Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision with no sign of IMAX support will be given like Disney+.
Other users for now still have to wait. This update is still being distributed in stages. In my review earlier, Android TV and iOS have yet to receive it. Let's wait together.
