If you are a Prime Video user, we have good news for you.
The streaming service has been updated to offer a more personalized experience.
Although some of its competitors such as Netflix already had this option, finally Prime Video users will be able to have their own profile to enjoy the experience.
This option will be useful especially for those users who have a shared account with either the ex, the crush, the brother, the mother or the friend.
Custom profiles in Prime Video
The fact that each user of the same account has their own profile could be very useful for having more personalized recommendations.
Plus, you no longer have to endure the tedium of seeing what your other friends are playing.
Even with the same profile, it is uncomfortable to want to see the same series or movie, since each user stays in a certain part and the other person must find their exact moment. On the other hand, if everyone has their own profile, that would no longer have to happen.
In this sense, Prime Video will allow creating and managing various profiles within the account with personalized content for each one.
Each profile will include custom recommendations, viewing history, season progress, and watchlist based on each profile’s activity.
According to the company, a Prime Video account may have up to six user profiles (one default primary and five additional adult or children).
TechCrunch points out that this new feature will arrive for all customers in the world, so if you already have the update, we explain how to activate your profile.
To create and manage (edit or delete) a Prime Video profile from the app on Android and iOS devices, you must do the following:
- Click My Space at the bottom of the Prime Video app screen.
- Go to the Profile Selector drop-down menu and click the + icon to create a new profile.
- Click Manage Profiles in the Profile Selector drop-down menu and select the profile icon you want to manage (edit or delete).
- Click Delete profiles to delete a profile. Or make changes to the profile and select Save.
In case you still do not have these options, check that you have the latest app version and if not, it would be a matter of a short time so that the tool will finally be deployed to all users.
