Netflix Account Sharing: Everything You Need to Know
Do your family members also want to watch Netflix? That’s no problem. A Netflix account can be used on an unlimited number of devices. Depending on your subscription, you can watch films and series on one, two, three or four screens at the same time.
This means that when you watch Netflix on your TV in the living room and your partner on his or her phone via an iPhone, you are currently using two screens. By giving all family members a separate profile, you don’t get in each other’s way. Sharing a Netflix account is super easy:
- Open the Netflix app on your iPhone and log in with your username and password if necessary;
- Tap ‘More’ at the bottom right and select ‘Add profile’ at the top right;
- Enter the name of the profile and choose a nice picture. Is the account for the little one? Then slide the switch at ‘For kids’ and tap ‘Save’.
You will now see the account at the top. Tap it to switch profiles. In the above way you can add as many Netflix accounts as you want. If the owner of the account wants to watch films and series, they must first log in with your username and password.
Why share a Netflix account?
Sharing a Netflix account has several advantages. First, it is simply cheaper to split the monthly costs for the subscription, especially if you are not all watching at the same time.
In addition, Netflix makes better recommendations for films and series that you might find interesting. These suggestions are based on your viewing behavior. When creating a Kids profile, you can specify an age limit in the settings yourself, so that your little one does not just get to see everything.
