Although there are various ways to add parental controls to Android devices, additional apps include settings of this type, which help parents and guardians choose which content can reach the smallest of the house, and which ones should remain hidden. One last point of compiling such a program has been Netflix.
As the company announces on its official news blog, Netflix already includes parental control settings which allows setting up ways to control access to the platform content depending on who is using it.
Netflix already includes parental controls: how they are
The parental control measures introduced by Netflix are varied. First, it is possible add a PIN to access the profiles so that the youngest of the house can access their own profile, not the other. This empowers teachers to better control your children's content. In a sense, filters allow select which topics are available, and prevent those that may not be appropriate for their age.
The possibility hide series, movies or documents by name. This way, restricted articles will not appear in the platform catalog when using one of the profiles configured for active parent control settings. Finally, the option of always see history and content that has been seen by minorities within their profile, and includes the possibility disable auto episode playback to child profiles.
How to set up Netflix parental control
The most logical process when adjusting for Netflix parental control start setting up the PIN to access the profiles, so that the youngest of the house can use their own. To do this, follow these steps:
-
Install Netflix and go to the "Account" section to adjust your profile settings.
-
Select the profile you want to block with the PIN and access the "Block profile" section.
-
Enter the account password when prompted, and enter the PIN you want to use to access the profile.
This way, he ensures that the smallest of the house cannot access those unmanaged profiles. So the next step restrict available content profile or profiles that children will use. To do this, follow this procedure:
-
Go back to the "Accounts" section, and access the "Restricted view" section.
-
Select the age ratings for the topics you want to be displayed, or check the "Child Profile" option, to display content only for all viewers, and recommended for children under 7.
3, If you want, enter the title of those series or movies you want to hide without age restrictions configured in the previous step.
That's all. Once you have set up parental controls, you can rest assured that your children will have access to their profile and that all content displayed will be appropriate for their age.
