In 2026, Disney+ has implemented stricter password-sharing restrictions, similar to Netflix's model. Users are restricted to a single "household," and the service uses IP addresses and device IDs to ensure the account is being used by people living together. To add a user outside your household, you must now pay for an "Extra Member" slot, which costs approximately $7.00–$8.00 per month depending on your plan. Additionally, the ad-supported tier restricts downloads and limits the number of concurrent streams to two. In March 2026, Disney+ is also finalizing its "Hulu on Disney+" integration in the U.S., which may introduce new tiered restrictions based on age-rated content and parental controls.
