I used to travel with my Apple TV to conveniently connect it to any hotel TV without sharing my streaming account passwords. However, I once encountered an issue where Disney Plus was not supported in a specific country. The Disney Plus app disabled playback, displaying a prompt indicating that Disney Plus was unavailable in the country, even though I had the app installed. Additionally, I attempted using a VPN, but it seems that the Disney app on Apple TV relies on GPS to determine the user’s location.
Moving forward, I plan to travel with my Vision Pro. I’m currently downloading a few movies on Disney Plus to enjoy during my flights and long transits. I’m curious if anyone has encountered the same issue with the Vision Pro.
Yep download NordVPN in AppStore and you’re good to go.
As long as you don’t connect to the internet you are fine. As soon as you do your downloads become invalid.
Thanks for the reply! Are you certain Vision Pro does not use GPS for the Disney plus app for geo locking? I’m asking because this was the case for the Apple TV…
Do you mean VPNs generally? like Express VPN or Cyberghost?
Yup nordVPN works great, just set your location to US
Haha. I’ve used your exact scenario in over 13 countries since launch! No issues whatsoever
If Disney+ used your location, you would be able to disable it - look into the Settings app for what you can set on Disney+. I’m pretty sure physical location is not something it uses, it would have to ask for permission.
There’s no GPS inside the Vision Pro. Why would there be?
I use ExpressVPN. But looks like it’s not available for Vision Pro. Just subscribed to Nord as other redditors suggested.
You’re right it does not have a GPS chip. But it has location services which can pin point exact GPS coordinates.
Anyway thanks all for the answers! It was very helpful!
they all have iOS/iPadOS versions - i guess it’s whether or not they make it compatible with VisionOS
