Bought my son a new Macbook air and he can't get Disney+, it says "only available on iOS"

I just bought my son a new Macbook air and he can't get Disney+, it says "only available on iOS", he has updated his software. When he goes to the app store the "real apps" don't appear it's like knock off apps.... I'm kinda confused.

Well, a Mac runs on Mac OS - iOS is for mobile iDevices only (iphone, iPad, etc). Having said that - I do not have this, but maybe there are separate apps/options, one for Mac and one for iOS?


According to this, it is available for both devices:

On a Mac, it looks like you need to use your browser (not a separate app) and there would be apps for mobile devices.
