Profiles settings
Several people, one television
Advanced settings depend on valid trial/Premium access and the installed build. Some controls appear only when their parent feature is enabled. Why an option may be missing.

Profiles
Switch profile, add or edit one
Focus this action and press OK. Review the opened panel or confirmation before proceeding; BACK closes the current dialog.
Who’s watching at startup
Choose a profile when opening the app. Turn off to resume the last profile.
Focus this row and press OK to switch it on or off. Check the displayed state before leaving.
Change the parent code
Four digits. The same code leaves a child's profile and opens locked groups.
Focus this action and press OK. Review the opened panel or confirmation before proceeding; BACK closes the current dialog.
Remove the parent code
Asks for the current code first. Removing it also turns the adult lock off.
Focus this action and press OK. Review the opened panel or confirmation before proceeding; BACK closes the current dialog.
Requires the current code and also disables adult locking.
Lock adult groups
Opening a group named Adult, XXX, +18 or the like asks for the parent code — once, and not again until the app is closed.
Focus this row and press OK to switch it on or off. Check the displayed state before leaving.
Ask for the code again
The code has been given this time round. This makes the adult groups ask for it again.
Focus this action and press OK. Review the opened panel or confirmation before proceeding; BACK closes the current dialog.
Profile Name
The display name shown in the profile picker.
Open Profiles, add/edit a profile, enter Name and Save.
Profile Colour
The colour identifying the profile.
Open the profile editor, choose a colour and Save.
Kids profile
Create a child-oriented profile; a parent code controls leaving it. Classification depends on available content metadata.
Open the profile editor, enable Kids profile, Save and test the content shown before giving it to a child.
Delete profile
Remove a profile using its confirmation action. This is different from unlinking the TV’s account.
Select the profile’s delete action, read the warning and confirm only if its profile data is no longer needed.
