TL;DR

• Movies Anywhere is once again syncing purchases from Google Play and YouTube after being disabled during YouTube TV and Disney’s dispute.
• Syncing won’t resume automatically — you need to reconnect your Google account to Movies Anywhere to restore it.
• The fix closes the last major fallout from the feud, which had already been resolved elsewhere weeks ago.

If you use Movies Anywhere to keep your movie purchases in one place, there’s some low-key good news to end the week. After disappearing during YouTube TV and Disney’s contract spat, syncing for Google Play and YouTube purchases is finally working again.

As reported by 9to5Google, Google Play and YouTube have now been restored as Movies Anywhere partners. Disney owns Movies Anywhere, and the service dropped Google support during the dispute, resulting in a break in cross-platform syncing. Now that Google has been reinstated, things are mostly back to normal. You just have to take one extra step.
