    Creating profiles

    You can create profiles for members in your household, allowing them to have their own personalized Netflix experience. Your account can have up to five individual profiles, and you can set a maturity rating level on each one. Each profile will have its own recommendations based on that profile’s ratings and tastes.

    Finding TV shows and movies

    You can search for titles you’re interested in or browse suggestions provided by Netflix. Once you start viewing and rating titles, Netflix will show recommendations. You can also enable subtitles, captions, or alternate audio on many titles, or browse titles with your preferred subtitle or audio language.

    You can update your account information at any time, and change your email, phone number, or membership plan by selecting the Account option within the Netflix menu.
