Locking a Netflix profile with a PIN may sound complicated, but it is pretty simple. Here's how you can do just that:

  • Add your login details
  • Next, click on the icon in the top-right corner and click Account in the drop-down menu.
  • Scroll down and click on the profile you wish to lock with a PIN
  • Next, click on Profile lock and click Change right next to it
  • You will have to enter the password for your Netflix account to proceed and when you do, click Continue
  • Next, tick the box next to Require a PIN to access your profile
  • In the box that will show up, enter the four digits that will be the PIN
  • You can also tick the option that will ask for the PIN when a new profile is created
  • Once you are done, click Save.

Once you make the changes, an email will be sent to your address confirming that the PIN has been set.
