You can delete profiles from your account if you’ve surpassed Hulu’s six-profile limit and need to make room for someone else. You may learn how to erase a Hulu profile in this post on a computer, a smartphone, and a Roku-enabled TV.
Hulu establishes a primary profile when you first sign up for the service. The main profile associated with your account cannot be deleted, although it can be changed as necessary.
How Do I Delete a Profile on Hulu on Windows PC or Mac?
To delete a profile on your desktop or laptop, log in to your Hulu account on your preferred browser and follow the instructions below:
-
Hover over the dropdown menu in the top-right corner and select Manage Profiles.
-
Select the Edit icon (pencil) next to the profile you wish to delete.
-
Select Delete Profile.
-
A new window will appear asking if you’re sure you want to delete it. Click Delete Profile to confirm.
It’s possible that you won’t be able to delete a profile if it’s currently being used on another device. If this occurs, wait until the profile is not in use again before attempting again.
How to Delete a Hulu Profile on Smartphones, Roku, Apple TV, and More
On the majority of the supported devices, such as smartphones, set-top boxes, gaming consoles, and more, you can erase a Hulu profile.
Launch the Hulu app on your iPhone or Android device, then tap Account in the bottom-right corner. To enter the profile menu, tap your account name, then choose Edit. To delete a profile, tap its name, scroll to the bottom, and then tap Delete Profile.
Regarding TV-connected gadgets (including Roku, Smart TVs, Apple TVs, game consoles, set-top boxes, and streaming sticks): Due to the variety of platforms Hulu is available on, the deletion procedure varies slightly depending on your device. However, each platform should adhere to the same fundamental procedures:
-
Open Hulu on your device.
-
Select Manage Account > Profiles.
-
Select the profile you wish to remove and press OK.
-
Confirm the deletion by pressing OK again.
Deleting a profile not only deletes all settings associated with that profile but also its watch history.
How to Delete All Profiles on Hulu
You can connect to Hulu using just a web browser if you’d like to delete every profile from your account (aside from the main profile). Additionally, the linked watch history and preferences will be deleted.
- Hover over the dropdown menu in the top-right corner and select Account.
-
Scroll down to Privacy and Settings and click California Privacy Rights.
-
Under Manage Activity, select Profiles and click Clear Selected.
From this option, you can also delete all viewing histories and cloud DVR settings for all profiles (without deleting all profiles).
