Disney+ enrolled more than 10 million subscribers in the first 24 hours of launch. Although the release wasn’t exactly seamless, users still have a lot to look forward to, with content from Marvel, Lucasfilm, Pixar, and National Geographic, not to mention Disney’s extensive vault of classic films and Disney Channel original movies and shows. Oh, and don’t forget high-profile shows like The Simpsons.
With such an enormous content library, there truly is something for everybody. As such, one of Disney+’s coolest features is the ability to set up to 10 distinct profiles so everybody using an account can access their personal watchlists, save more shows they want to see, and receive better recommendations via Disney’s algorithm. After all, you may not want the system to recommend episodes of The Simpsons to your 6-year-old child.
Still, you may be thinking, “10 profiles seems like a lot.” If you got excited in the first week and created a profile for every member of your family — dog included — you may want to dial it back to allow others access to your account. Fortunately, it’s incredibly easy to remove a profile in Disney+, though the method for deleting your account differs depending on how you created an account.
