Trending Technologies: How to switch profiles on Hulu on your streaming device

You can switch profiles on Hulu easily on any streaming device.
A Hulu profile lets you manage your viewing experience, keeping tabs on shows or movies in progress, suggesting new programs, and storing your past history.
Hulu allows a single account to have up to six separate profiles, so everyone in the family can enjoy a customized media experience.

Does your significant other love police procedurals and shows about cupcake bakeries, while you prefer sitcoms, rom coms, and horror movies?

Then it sounds like you two have very different taste in programming, and rather odd taste at that. But that's OK, with your very own Hulu profile you can carve out your own customized viewing experience.

Your Hulu profile gives you quick access to shows or movies in progress, episodes of your favorite series, and helps you find new material you just might love.

If you opened Hulu up only to find a cop show or baking program staring at you, then you'll need to switch profiles to get back to the lighthearted comedies and terrifying films you love.

Here's how to switch Hulu profiles on mobile, a computer, and a TV, respectively.
