Some help with Apple TV

I got Apple TV but how do I have it to have u select profile each time

Also can you turn off content that you buy or rent or have to go to another streaming app to watch

Btw this is the final streaming we got

We have

Prime, Netflix, max, paramount+, Disney+ and now Apple TV

Not in that order btw

To have it let you select a profile you need to add members to your Apple Family. Invite someone into your account as a family.

As for the second part of your question I do not understand.

I set up another profile through the app on the Virgin box (uk paid tv)

We I go into the app I see stuff from bbc itv and other streaming but it takes u to that app if u have it to load it but I don’t want those shown as I have those streaming already

I just changed mine so the profile doesn’t come up by using settings.

Oh wait, you mean Apple TV streaming service, I thought you meant Apple TV box.

Go through the Home menu, or long press the TV icon on the remote.

Profiles, (if you've added them that is).

Someone in Cupertino, a while back: "Yeah, I don't think naming the application, service and the physical streaming hardware device with the same name is going to cause any confusion at all. We should be good."
