When you create a Family Profile, you can create age-appropriate viewing experiences for your family, including these benefits:
- Choose a content rating: TV-G or TV-PG. Only content with that rating and below will be available to stream from that profile.
- Create a PIN to prevent younger household members from accessing the profile without parental supervision, or from accessing other profiles with higher content rating settings.
