HomePod Will Disney+ on the Apple TV support Atmos with the Homepods one day?

[B/D]

At this point, I have lost hope. Disney acknowledged the issue a long time ago, but so far, it hasnt been fixed.

What do you guys think?. Its a pity, since the rest of streaming services all support it now, and there is a lot of Atmos content on Disney+.

I'm at the stage where i've given up. It's such a shame, I LOVE my OG stereo pair which I only got last year, but it is very frustrating that Disney+ does not support Atmos with the HomePod's.

It looked like we were getting somewhere earlier in the year but alas, nothing since!

They also dont support Atmos trough spatial audio via bluetooth for the airpods.

The OG Homepod is discontinued but the Airpods are not, so I hope they (Disney+) are still working on it.

PS: Another Homepod must be in the works because the Minis dont support Atmos and Apple is pushing Atmos music in Apple Music...

Automatic support would be added if they switched to tvOS 15 native player. Netflix did it after a long time, so there is hope.

@ScrumpyDaniel it seems, according to a redditor, that the support is there, but is buggy.

This workaround only works if you have a tv with atmos support for it built in speakers.
