What you'll need
- Disney+ password
- Phone app or supported browser
- A 4-digit PIN children don't know
Step-by-step
- Edit Profiles in the app or browser (not relying on the TV UI to change controls).
- Younger kids: enable Junior Mode + Kid-Proof Exit on their profile.
[Screenshot: Junior Mode] - Older kids: set a Content Rating cap (UK bands include 0+ through 18+).
- PIN-lock adult profiles and restrict new profile creation if the control appears.
- Turn Not Rated & Live Content off on kids' profiles; disable autoplay if offered.
- Test catalogue limits, exit challenge and adult PIN prompts.
⚠️ Watch out
- Junior Mode still needs PIN-locked adult profiles.
- Live/unrated content is a common loophole if left on.
- Primary profile can't be Junior Mode — create a child profile.
