Parental control with a PIN and channel blocking
Last updated: 2026-06-28
Parental Control lets you protect channels with a PIN so they’re out of reach for younger viewers.
Step by step
- Open Parental Control. In Settings, open Parental Control.
- Create your PIN. Set a code that will be required to access protected channels. Keep it somewhere safe.
- Block channels. Select the channels you want to protect: opening them will ask for the PIN.
Tips
- Pick a PIN that children can’t easily guess.
- You can unblock a channel anytime by going back to the Parental Control screen.
- If you forget the PIN, you’ll need to reset it from the Parental Control screen by following the steps shown there.
