Turn off "Who's Watching" on Prime?

Is there a way to turn off the Who's Watching forced selection on Amazon Prime channel? I guess it's a nice idea but we don't need it and I can't find a way in "Settings" to make it go away.

Go to "manage your profile"  delete the Kids account that was automatically created for you. With only one profile left, Amazon will skip the Who's Watching screen. 

  1. Log into Amazon.com
  2. In the "Accounts & Lists" menu, go to "Your Prime Video"
  3. At the top right there should be a "Who's Watching?" dropdown. Click on that, then "Manage Profiles"
  4. That's where you should be able to click on the Kids profile (edit it) and you'll see the "Remove profile" link.

    Totally right AmazonBlows  sorry about that - whatever the link I was using when I did this on my phone worked, but that one certainly doesn't.

    Just tried on my computer and here's how to get to the same place: 

    1. Log into Amazon.com
    2. In the "Accounts & Lists" menu, go to "Your Prime Video"
    3. At the top right there should be a "Who's Watching?" dropdown. Click on that, then "Manage Profiles"
    4. That's where you should be able to click on the Kids profile (edit it) and you'll see the "Remove profile" link.

    Hope this helps someone.

      This works, thank you! Just one difference (maybe only because I’m on an iPad): instead of the “Who’s Watching“ dropdown in step 3 I see a blue profile icon beside a settings gear. Click the profile icon and continue from there.
