Electrek heard from a source that Tesla informed Disney+ last week that it would remove its native app from the Tesla Theatre in its vehicles without giving a reason as to why.

A few days later, Tesla told Disney that it would only remove the app for Tesla owners who never used the app before.

The automaker now appears to have acted on the threat, as many Tesla owners are reporting not seeing the Disney+ app in Tesla Theatre anymore. Others, presumably those who have used the app before, are still seeing the app available in their cars.

We were told that Tesla didn’t officially give a reason to Disney, but the message was sort of “read between the lines.”

People watch shows while driving?!

Electric cars need time to charge, so you can watch stuff while waiting for the batteries to charge.

Doesnt most charging take place at home?

Not if you want to go on a roadtrip.

This is a weird ass trend i started to see. People use their phone for navigation and their car display to watch tv while driving. I've seen it the first time like 3month ago, but since then ever so often.

People text while driving. Is that really so surprising?
