Disney+ App Welcomes Hulu Content, Expanding Your Watchlist
With the beta release of Hulu on Disney+ on Wednesday, Disney is moving forward with its streaming strategy. Accordingly, Hulu series and films like “Abbot Elementary” and “Prey,” in addition to material from this channel, will be available to bundle members in the United States without requiring them to leave the Disney+ network. Work will continue beyond 2024 to implement this one app experience in many phases starting now. The standalone applications for Hulu, Disney+, and ESPN+ will still be accessible.
The launch plan, which was first revealed during Disney’s quarterly earnings call last month, coincides with Disney’s acquisition of Comcast’s one-third ownership share in Hulu, which it is now working to complete. Since 2024, it has operated Hulu with 100% operational control. The starting monthly subscription fee for the Hulu-enhanced Disney+ is $10, which is $2 more than the base tier. In addition to buttons for Marvel, Pixar, Disney, Star Wars, and National Geographic, those that subscribe to the dual service will also see a “Hulu” button.
Samsung Brings Back Popular Disney100 Edition of The Frame TV
Subscribers who have separate Hulu and Disney Plus accounts can also enjoy the experience if their email address is linked to both accounts. The new hub will not replace the Hulu or Disney applications, and they will continue to be available separately, according to Disney’s claim. Just the single whole app will have access to Hulu with live TV and Premium add-ons, along with the complete Hulu SVOD content library. How many films or series are missing from the Hulu on Disney Plus lineup is currently unknown.
This was originally said in November of last year that it was bringing Hulu on Disney Plus beta to the US; consumers in other countries are already able to use it. Prior to the formal debut in March 2024, this two-phase rollout will begin with the beta version on December 6. Subscribers may manage the viewing experience for their family by making profiles, changing the content settings for each profile, and using Junior Mode for the youngest viewers. The business wants “to inspire Disney+ and Hulu standalone subscribers to upgrade to the bundle as well, once they see everything that can be accessed,” says Joe Earley, head of direct-to-consumer at Disney.

Google Messages Rolls Out Text Editing Feature For Beta Users
Google is adding an extra layer of facility by offering a new feature, ‘text editing’, in its messaging app, Google Message.
Google is gearing up to send a text editing feature for Google Messages, which would permit you to edit any message even after sending it, but within the particular last few minutes. Initially, Google was spotted working on a message editing feature for Google Messages back in February, and finally, the feature has come into existence.
At the moment, Google is rolling out this feature only for beta users. This is being speculated by a post on X shared by a user, @Jhowkira2000 (via AssembleDebug on X), who stated that the messaging editing feature is already available for a short range of users.
But here’s the catch: you can only edit messages when you and your conversation partner have the feature. It is reported that the giant has set a 15-minute time limit, so if you want to edit a message after sending it, you have to edit it within 15 minutes; after that, you won’t be able to edit. Plus, anyone can see the original, unedited message in the message details. The conversation will display the edited message, giving it a cleaner view.
You can easily edit the message just by pressing long on the message you want to edit and then clicking on the pencil icon housed in the top toolbar. At the moment, the feature is in the beta stage, but it is expected that soon the brand will roll out the feature stably.
