Setting Up Profiles on a Shared Streaming Account

One account, several people — profiles are what keep everyone's settings and experience separate.

When multiple people in a household share one streaming account, individual profiles keep each person's settings, such as language and playback preferences, distinct from everyone else's.

Why profiles are worth setting up

  • Each person's settings stay separate from the rest of the household
  • Switching profiles is faster than re-entering settings each time
  • It's easier to keep a household organized around who's using which device

Setting one up

Look for a profile or account option in the app's settings menu after signing in. If you don't see the option on your device, our FAQ page or contact support can point you in the right direction.

Combining profiles with parental controls

If a profile is meant for a child, pairing it with parental controls is worth doing at the same time — see our guide on setting up parental controls for family streaming.
