When Disney+ Hotstar unveiled its revamped Android and iOS app a few months ago, one of the prominent new features of the update was the ability to set various user profiles. That allowed users to share their subscription with friends and family, especially the Premium plan, letting users stream content in up to 4K resolution on up to four screens simultaneously. With profiles, users can have their own set of customised home screens and recommendation pages and can also set up safe streaming spaces for children. Here is a quick tutorial on how to set up profiles on Disney+ Hotstar.
