New App Feature : Multiple User Profiles
Multiple User Profiles allow different members of the paying user’s friends and family to have their own
personalized App experience, built around the TV shows and Movies they enjoy. This new feature will
allow a fixed number of individual profiles within a single paid subscription account.
Each profile allows for its own:

The subscription user account can set a profile to be a kids profile with appropriate parental control
rating allowance set. This is to prevent a kid getting access to inappropriate content for their age.
