Roku gives access to thousands of streaming content channels, but not all content is appropriate for all age groups. With Roku parental control features, parents and adults can restrict access to channels and content that isn’t appropriate for children, and stop kids from adding unwanted channels or paid subscriptions. This walkthrough explains how to easily use Roku parental controls.
Note:You have to go directly to the App’s settings as Roku devices lack access to the parental controls features on third-party apps.
Important Definitions to Note:
Roku Private or Hidden Channels: These are channels that can be added discreetly. Companies can formulate and disseminate their own content through this channel listing.
4-Digit Pin: This is a PIN consisting of four numbers set in order to limit the Roku account from specific channels. This PIN does NOT prevent X-rated channels already loaded from being watched nor does it deter browsing X-rated channel titles.
