How to Set Paramount Plus Parental Controls
To set parental controls on Paramount Plus, you’ll need to access your account on a computer or mobile web browser like Chrome — you won’t be able to use the app itself to do it.
- Head to Paramount Plus, log in, click your name in the top right corner, and then click “Account.”
- Scroll down until you see the Parental Controls section. Toggle the parental controls button to “On.” You’ll then be prompted to enter your Paramount+ password to continue.
- Click “Submit.”
- Next, create a 4-digit PIN so you can password-protect your settings.
- Below the PIN section, you’ll see a slider that will allow you to select which rating levels will be locked. Choose the best fit for your family.
- Click “Save” to lock in your settings. Content that has a locked rating will now require the PIN to watch.
