Peacocks allows users to create multiple profiles under a single account to personalize viewing experiences for different family members or users. This feature is helpful for maintaining distinct watchlists, recommendations, and viewing histories. If you use Peacocks on your Samsung Smart TV, here’s how to set up and manage multiple profiles effectively.
Why Use Multiple Profiles on Peacocks?
Multiple profiles enable personalized content curation. Each user can have their own watchlist, preferences, and viewing recommendations without interfering with others. For parents, creating separate kid profiles with parental controls helps ensure children only access appropriate content.

Launch the Peacocks app on your Samsung Smart TV.
On the main screen, select the profile icon or navigate to “Who’s Watching.”
Choose “Add Profile” or the plus (+) symbol.
Enter a name for the new profile.
For child accounts, enable the “Kid Profile” option to restrict mature content automatically.
Save the new profile.
The new profile will now appear during app launch, allowing users to switch profiles and watch personalized content.
Switching Between Profiles on Samsung TV
Switching profiles is straightforward:
On the Peacocks home screen on your Samsung TV, select the current profile name/icon at the top.
