Disney Plus and Hulu Cut Ties with Apple: No More In-App Subscriptions!

Hello, my tech-savvy friends! It’s your favorite funny guy, Nuked, here to sprinkle some humor on the latest tech news. Let’s dive into it!

Big news for Disney Plus and Hulu fans! If you’ve been thinking about subscribing through your iPhone, you might want to rethink that plan. It seems these streaming giants have decided to cut ties with Apple for new subscriptions, as reported by MacRumors. So, no more signing up directly through the app!

Out of sheer curiosity (and a sprinkle of mischief), I logged into my Disney Plus account via the iOS app to see what was cooking. After typing in my email and password, I was hit with a message that read: “Unfortunately, this app doesn’t support in-app sign up. Finish setting up your account on the website. Create and manage your account at disneyplus.com/next.” Talk about a plot twist!

And let’s not forget about Hulu; their iOS app is doing the same thing! If you’re trying to log in without an active subscription, it’ll redirect you to their website too. It looks like these companies are taking a stand against Apple taking a slice of their subscription pie.

Now, if you’re already a subscriber through Apple, don’t panic! Disney assures us that you’ll still be billed through Apple for now. But if you were hoping to jump on board as a new subscriber via the app, well, it’s time to fire up your web browser!

Disney isn’t alone in this game. They’re just the latest in a line of companies opting out of in-app subscriptions. Remember when Netflix pulled the plug on this back in 2018? And they recently cut off Apple billing for legacy subscribers too. Spotify’s in on the fun as well, with its app cheekily noting that “we know, it’s not ideal.”

So there you have it! A little tech news with a side of humor. Stay tuned for more updates and keep those streaming dreams alive—just maybe not through your iPhone apps anymore!
