Creating Disney Plus profiles for your kids and loved ones

You didn’t subscribe to Disney Plus just to keep all of your favorite shows and movies to yourself, but you also don’t want your relatives messing up your watch lists and recommendations. We got you.

You can easily add up to six additional profiles, for a total of seven profiles that can be accessed across four devices simultaneously. Here’s how to set them up:

1. From the Disney Plus home screen on your app or from the Disney Plus website, select Add Profile to the right of your own profile icon. You may need to tap or select your profile icon first.
