I concur. Sadly I signed up for the year deal, and really their content offering is seriously lacking.
I actually don't mind the content .

I've watched Big Sky, Drop Out, Homeland and Murder In the Building so far

It was basically Buffering Simulator the whole weekend.

Can watch Youtube and Netflix in 4K. Can't watch Disney+ in HD.

Anybody have issues with brightness while using Disney+ on their phone?
Using S22 and can't control brightness from the pull down menu. Max brightness control on the app seems to supersede system brightness controls and it's so dim I can hardly see anything. Any ideas how to fix?

No issues my side. One of my kids has been streaming Iron Man with no issues. Same with anything we stream (miniPC using Windows 11 on a 50Mbps line).

Any ideas how to change to SDR on mobile?
lower your display resolution?-A better way of doing this would be to set it by using a Bixby routine so that your display would lower the res. when the Disney + app is opened and return to the max res. when the app is closed.

Problem is that Disney+ app does let you control brightness or display settings outside of the app while using it. Baked in brightness bar in Disney+ is absolute shyte.

I was watching now, and it just stopped. With an error. I refresh and now I see Moon Knight, 3 or 4 other options and nothing else. Exactly the same options on Home, Movies and Series. I can’t search anything else and no other options presented. I’m logged in with a monthly subscription, renewable end of this month.
