The Disney Plus streaming service came online in 2019. So with this service, you can watch many movies and shows in the Disney, Pixar, Star Wars, National Geographic, or Marvel collections. Further, for vision impaired and blind users, many of these shows have a description track. In that program, an announcer explains what’s going on on the screen as the show runs. You can hear this talking during the movie by turning it on in the Disney Plus app. Unfortunately, many users report accidentally enabling this talking when they don’t want it, and then they don’t know how to disable it again. So in this piece, we show you how to turn off commentary on Disney Plus, as follows.
