If you share a Hulu profile with multiple people, it can be difficult to find your favorite shows and recommendations. But Hulu offers a solution with its profile feature, which allows you to create up to six profiles on a single account. Each user can have their own sub-account that tracks their unique interests, favorites, and shows watched, resulting in more personalized recommendations.
In this article, we’ll walk you through the process of adding a Hulu profile using the Hulu mobile app on iPhone, iPad, and Android, the Hulu.com website, and the Hulu app on Roku.
