Error 91

Disney+ Streaming Service

Severity: Moderate

What it means

Error 91 means Disney+ cannot verify your subscription status.
This can happen when your subscription has lapsed or there is a temporary issue verifying your account.
Checking your subscription status and signing out and back in usually fixes it.

Affected Models

  • All devices running Disney+
  • Samsung Smart TV
  • Apple TV
  • Amazon Fire Stick
  • Roku
  • Web browser

Common Causes

  • Subscription has expired or was not renewed
  • Disney+ server temporarily unable to verify subscription
  • Session token expired requiring a fresh sign-in
  • Account logged in on too many devices causing a verification conflict
  • Third-party subscription (Apple, Google) not syncing properly

How to Fix It

  1. Sign out of Disney+ on your device.

    Go to the Disney+ app settings and select Sign Out.
    This clears the stored session token.

  2. Go to disneyplus.com on a browser and confirm your subscription is active.

    Check Account > Subscription.
    If it shows expired or cancelled, renew it before signing back in.

  3. Sign back in to Disney+ on your device.

    Use your email and password.
    A fresh sign-in forces Disney+ to re-verify your subscription status.

  4. If subscribed through Apple or Google, check those subscriptions.

    Apple: Settings > Your Name > Subscriptions.
    Google: Play Store > Subscriptions.
    Ensure Disney+ is active there.

  5. Restart the device and try again if the error persists.

    A device restart clears cached session data that may be causing the verification to fail.

When to Call a Professional

Error 91 is almost always self-fixable.
Sign out, verify your subscription is active, and sign back in.
Contact Disney+ support if the error persists after confirming your subscription is active and paid.

Frequently Asked Questions

My subscription is active but I still get Error 91 — why?

Your session token may have expired, making Disney+ think your subscription is not valid.
Sign out completely and sign back in to get a fresh token.
If this does not help, try clearing the app cache before signing in again.

Will Error 91 go away on its own?

If the issue is on Disney+ servers, it may resolve itself within a few hours.
If it is a session or subscription issue, you need to take action — it will not fix itself.
Signing out and back in is always the first step.

I cancelled Disney+ but then resubscribed — is that causing Error 91?

Resubscribing after a cancellation can sometimes cause a brief delay in verifying the new subscription.
Sign out and sign back in after resubscribing to force a fresh verification.
If the error continues, contact Disney+ support.
