How to Customize Content Ratings on Disney+ for Family-Friendly Viewing

As a streaming expert with years of experience guiding families through platform settings, I recommend setting up content ratings on Disney+ right away. Since March 16, 2022, new users are prompted during initial sign-in to select ratings for all household profiles, aligning with Disney+'s enhanced parental controls. Without selection, profiles default to TV-14, filtering out mature content like TV-MA.

This shift accommodates edgier Marvel series such as Daredevil and Luke Cage, which extend beyond traditional family fare.

These steps are shown for desktop; mobile and TV apps follow a similar flow.
