Does Language Reactor work on Disney+, Prime Video or HBO Max?
Not as of October 2026. Language Reactor works on Netflix and YouTube; its FAQ says Disney+ and Amazon Prime aren't supported yet, HBO Max isn't listed, and Pro doesn't add them. Lingosive adds dual subtitles on all three, plus Netflix and YouTube, in Chrome, Edge or Brave on a computer. Neither works inside those services' TV or phone apps.

Does Language Reactor work on Disney+?
No: as of October 30, 2026, Language Reactor doesn't work on Disney+. Its FAQ asks "Do you support Disney+/Amazon Prime/Android/etc?" and answers: "We do not support these platforms yet, but might in the future."
Its getting-started guide says the same from the other side: "Our browser extension adds language learning tools to the Netflix and YouTube websites." So its dual subtitles and pop-up dictionary aren't available on disneyplus.com. The FAQ doesn't say when that might change, and we won't guess.
Does Language Reactor work on Prime Video or Amazon Prime?
Language Reactor doesn't work on Prime Video either. Its FAQ names Amazon Prime in the same answer, among the platforms it doesn't support yet, and its help pages don't list Prime Video as a supported site.
Lingosive works on Prime Video at primevideo.com in a computer browser. Pick subtitles in the language you're learning in the Prime Video player, then switch on Lingosive's translation line underneath.
Does Language Reactor work on HBO Max?
Language Reactor doesn't list HBO Max as a supported site. Its help pages name Netflix and YouTube as the sites its extension works on, and neither they nor its FAQ mention HBO Max. So this is an absence, not a stated "no".
Lingosive works in the HBO Max web player at play.max.com and play.hbomax.com.
Does Language Reactor Pro add Disney+ or Prime Video?
No: Pro changes what Language Reactor does on its sites, not which sites it covers. Its FAQ says a single Pro subscription "can be used on Netflix, Youtube and LanguageReactor.com website," and its Pro page lists speech recognition and machine translation on Netflix, saving words across all its features, an enhanced Lexa AI model and an Aria chat partner that remembers your conversations. None of these is a new streaming service.
Lingosive doesn't tie sites to a plan either: dual subtitles are free on all five sites, with or without an account, and Premium removes the free plan's limits, such as the 100-word cap and the daily caps on Lingosive AI and Word in Film. Plans are on the pricing page; for Pro and Premium side by side, see Lingosive vs Language Reactor.
How to get dual subtitles on Disney+, Prime Video and HBO Max
- Add Lingosive for Chrome on your computer. It also runs in Edge, Brave and other Chromium browsers.
- Play a title on disneyplus.com, primevideo.com or the HBO Max web player, and turn on subtitles in the language you're learning in the player menu.
- Click the layers icon next to the subtitle line, or press N. A translation in your language appears under each line, and any word in the top line can be clicked for its meanings, pronunciation and a Learn button that saves it to your list.
Each service has a step-by-step page: dual subtitles on Disney+, Prime Video dual subtitles and HBO Max dual subtitles. One honest limit: some playback extras, such as the slower repeat, work only on Netflix and YouTube. Lingosive is an independent tool with no affiliation to Disney+, Prime Video, HBO Max, Netflix or YouTube.
What neither tool does
Neither works inside the Disney+, Prime Video or HBO Max apps on a TV, phone or tablet, because those apps can't run browser extensions. Language Reactor's homepage marks Netflix "Desktop Only!", and Lingosive also needs a computer for streaming services. What Lingosive adds on a phone is an iPhone and Android app with its own library of YouTube videos in dual subtitles. The phone side is covered in Language Reactor on Android and iPhone.
When Language Reactor is still the better pick
If Netflix and YouTube are all you watch, Language Reactor is a strong, long-running choice: its free mode is generous on both, it covers 40+ languages and it exports saved words to Anki. Its Chrome Web Store listing shows 2,000,000 users and an update on October 20, 2026.

Which one fits you?
Choose Language Reactor if
- You only watch Netflix and YouTube at a computer. Its free mode already gives you dual subtitles, a click-for-definition dictionary and precise playback controls there.
- The language you're learning isn't one of Lingosive's 13. Language Reactor supports 40+.
- You review in Anki. Language Reactor exports saved words to Anki; Lingosive has no export.
- On Netflix you'd rather have a subtitle track that Netflix provides as your second line, which is what its free mode uses.
Choose Lingosive if
- You watch Disney+, Prime Video or HBO Max and want dual subtitles and clickable words there too.
- You want one word list across all five sites, with up to 100 saved words and phrases on the free plan.
- You browse with Edge or Brave. Lingosive supports both, while Language Reactor's store listing names only Chrome.
- You want an iPhone or Android app to review the words you save.
Frequently asked questions
Will Language Reactor support Disney+ or Prime Video in the future?
Its FAQ says it doesn't support them yet "but might in the future." It gives no date, and we won't guess one. The FAQ is the page to watch; the table above links to it.
Can I get dual subtitles in the Disney+ or Prime Video app on my TV or phone?
Not with either tool. TV and phone apps can't run browser extensions, so both tools work only in a computer browser, and of the two, only Lingosive works on the Disney+ and Prime Video websites. On a phone, the Lingosive app has its own library of YouTube videos with dual subtitles; it doesn't play Disney+, Prime Video or HBO Max.
Do I need an account or Premium for dual subtitles on Disney+?
No. Lingosive's dual subtitles and word translations work without an account. A free account lets you save up to 100 words and phrases and ask Lingosive AI for 10 explanations a day; Premium removes those limits.
Is Lingosive's second line the same as the Disney+ subtitles in my language?
No. The top line is the subtitle track you pick in the Disney+, Prime Video or HBO Max player. The line under it is a machine translation into your language, mostly from Google Translate, so its wording can differ from that service's subtitles in your language. It also works when a title has no subtitles in your language at all.
Does either one work in Firefox or Safari?
Not as of October 2026. Language Reactor's Chrome Web Store listing says its extension runs on Google Chrome on Windows and macOS computers, and we found no Firefox or Safari version. Lingosive runs in Chrome, Edge, Brave and other Chromium browsers and has no Firefox or Safari version either.
Does either one work on Crunchyroll?
No. Crunchyroll isn't among the sites Language Reactor's help pages name, and Lingosive doesn't support it either. Lingosive works on YouTube, Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+ and HBO Max.
