You can now transfer your profile on Netflix to any account

Recently, Netflix changed its password-sharing rules, forcing many customers to register new accounts as a result. Although this was the operation's planned result, it prompted concerns about what would become of the unique profiles that people had painstakingly created over time.

A new version of the company's Profile Transfer feature has been released. Users have the option to move their current Netflix profiles to another account rather than opening a new one. You may transfer all of your personalized recommendations, viewing history, saved games, and settings to a separate account with this function.

Anyone with a Netflix subscription can use Profile Transfer. When this function becomes accessible to account holders, you'll get an email alert. Go to the site, hover your cursor over your profile symbol, and choose "Transfer Profile" from the dropdown menu to start the transfer procedure. Additionally, you can always turn off Profile Transfer in your account settings if you change your mind.

For individuals who might have lost access to a friend's account because of password-sharing restrictions, this new feature update is fantastic news. Now, if you don't have an account, you may effortlessly move all of your personal information to your old account or even someone else's account.

In an effort to address the criticism of the restriction on password sharing, Netflix launched the Profile Transfer function. When checking in before, customers who borrowed Netflix passwords were urged to make their own accounts. In May 2023, Netflix announced that it will crack down on password sharing. This led to a sharp rise in American subscribers.

There are currently 232.5 million subscribers to Netflix worldwide. The business has confirmed that over 100 million subscribers used password sharing to access its site globally. In the US, 27% of Netflix users also let their families to use their accounts. To address this problem, Netflix changed its password-sharing policies. As a result, only members of the same household with the same internet connection are now permitted to share a password.
