How to Transfer Hulu Profile to New Account

Hulu is among the most efficient streaming services that one can sign up for. It allows you and your family to access unlimited films and TV shows using your Hulu account. A unique feature of Hulu is that it allows you to create specialized profiles across different family members to enable them to view personalized recommendations and preferences.

This article will describe a Hulu profile, whether you can create more than one profile, and the ways to transfer to a new Hulu profile. We'll also outline how to transfer the Hulu app from one PC to another using EaseUS Todo PCTrans. 

What Is Hulu Profile?

A Hulu profile allows users to access one Hulu account and use different streaming services based on their preferences, histories, and recommendations. Hulu allows individuals to create personal profiles instead of viewing one screen for all movies and TV shows.

This implies that every family member can view their preferred movies and TV shows using the same Hulu account but have personalized recommendations on TV shows based on their profile. With an individual Hulu profile, you’ll have complete control over the “My Stuff” section that allows you to save a list of favorite shows and movies to watch in the future.   

Can You Have Two Hulu Accounts?

Yes, Hulu allows you to create more than one user profile. You can create up to six Hulu profiles for one account. Despite that, you’re only allowed a maximum of two simultaneous streams on one account. This restriction applies to the two basic account plans.

You'll need to pay an extra $9.99 to access the unlimited screens add-on every month provided by the Hulu Plus Live TV plan. This allows your family to stream unlimited devices within the same network simultaneously. The extra add-on comes with two major exceptions, however.

First, you’re only allowed to watch one channel for up to five devices within your home network. Second, if you exit your home network, you can only have simultaneous streams on a maximum of three mobile devices.
