To use the feature, you’ll first start the FaceTime call, then open the Disney+ app. The SharePlay feature itself is relatively easy to use as it’s built into the FaceTime app. This could make for an easy way for a family who can’t be together for the holidays to have a Disney movie night, for example, or a way to entertain the kids by having them stream Disney+ with friends back home while out of town for a holiday trip, among other things. Once updated, users will be able to host and attend SharePlay sessions that allow up to 32 people to co-watch Disney+ together. This includes its new titles like Marvel Studios’ “Hawkeye,” “Welcome to Earth” and its upcoming Disney+ premieres, like “Encanto,” which arrives on Christmas Eve (December 24), and the “The Book of Boba Fett,” which becomes available starting on December 29.

Disney says the feature will be compatible globally across the entire Disney+ catalog from Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars and National Geographic. Today, the companies are making good on that promise with the release of a Disney+ app update that will allow subscribers to use the SharePlay feature on Apple’s iOS, iPadOS and tvOS devices.

Disney+ is the latest streaming app to add support for Apple’s SharePlay, the iOS 15 feature that offers a co-viewing experience over FaceTime video calls on iPhone, iPad, Mac or Apple TV devices.
