Disney+ users can now benefit from a new feature available on the service that will help make it easier for you to discover which upcoming movie or series to watch next. In this way, the platform continues to strive to ensure that the volume of viewing hours on its service increases little by little.
Although it may be a little surprising, there are still some essential options on any streaming service that are not available on Disney+. Disney’s platform, however, remedies one of them. This is the availability of a top with the most current content of the service at the time we enter, with only a ranking available that will combine both series and movies. The users subscribed to Disney+ You can already find it within the interface.
Updated daily
From Disney they mention that users will find different tops that will appear depending on different factors, such as the type of subscription they have or whether it is an account for children or not. They want, as in the case of Netflix, these rankings to serve so that we can discover content that is hitting the service hard and that perhaps we have not yet seen.
To make it clearer how the tops work and how they are created, the company comments that they use different factors to create the rankings. One of these factors is, of course, the number of views each series or movie has. In any case, these counts are carried out daily, which prevents a very long series, even if it is not currently being seen much, from continuing to appear in the top 10. At the same time, they also say that they take into account their popularity. developing the premieres throughout the same period of time as the last day. This will mean that, for example, a movie that has been released in the last few hours may appear in the ranking if it is being highly requested by users.
What are you going to find?
This Disney+ top, as we said, wants you to discover new trending content. Right now, with the Halloween holiday, the most viewed and demanded thing on the platform is everything that is related to this holiday. And, as you might have imagined, the most popular content is also the one most tied to Disney’s own image and identity. For example, we are going to find ourselves in the top positions with films like Return of the Witches or the Agatha series, who else?, which is a trend due to how well it is working among Marvel fans.
At another time, it is most likely that the ranking will be dominated by premieres that reach a certain level of virality or by the big hits of Disney+. For example, Deadpool and Wolverine will be released soon and it is clear that it will not take long for them to be placed in the first position of the top. This would also have happened with the recent Inside Out 2 if, at that time, the ranking had been available.
What Disney+ is looking for is that you can discover new movies and series that you may have missed, but that are hugely successful among all users. It is a good technique and, on the other hand, it is also a very good idea that they have decided to combine both series and movies. After all, the Disney+ catalog tends to have less movement than that of other services, so that way the top will be a little more dynamic and change more frequently. Of course, keep in mind that, although it is updated every day, it does not necessarily have to change the positions daily. Everything will depend on what is trending at all times.
