Netflix has announced an update to its Profile Transfer feature, allowing users to transfer their profile preferences to an existing account instead of creating a new one.
Netflix stated that the updated feature is now available and no longer requires the creation of a new account.
Users can easily transfer their profile preferences by selecting the profile icon and choosing the “Profile Transfer” option.
From there, they can select “An Existing Account” and enter the email address and password for the account they wish to transfer their profile.
Once the transfer is complete, the member will receive an email notification informing them that a profile has been moved over to their account.
This feature was initially launched in October 2022
This feature served as a precursor to Netflix’s recent crackdown on password sharing.
The update to Netflix’s new feature not only provides convenience for users transitioning between households.
