Too many people using your Netflix? Time to remove their profiles, here’s how

Netflix is the biggest streaming app in the world with a subscriber base of more than 250 million. While millions are using Netflix, many are still relying on their friend’s or family member’s accounts to access shows and movies.

And yes, despite the password-sharing cracking, you can still give your account to your friends as long as they connect their device to your household’s Wi-Fi once every 31 days. One Netflix account can be shared with as many as four people with up to five profiles. Here’s where the problem lies. Since there’s a limit of up to five profiles, anyone you share your account with can create these profiles and that can be quite exasperating. However, you can easily remove these profiles if you wish to clean up your account and stop giving access to others. In this article, we will show you exactly that.
