Netflix introduces profile transfer option for seamless account switching
TL;DR Summary
Netflix has updated its Profile Transfer feature, allowing users to switch to an existing account instead of creating a new one. The feature, launched in October 2022, enables members to transfer their profile preferences, including customized recommendations and viewing history, to another account. This update comes as part of Netflix's efforts to crack down on password-sharing, requiring users to pay an additional membership fee if they don't live in the same household as the account holder. Despite the backlash, Netflix saw a significant increase in daily sign-ups after announcing the new rules.
