Re: How to add another family member with their own profile preferences
You can't, you can add someone to your account but whatever they do on their roku will happen on your's. So have them start with their own email and start a new roku account, so their changes won't effect you. Having two different roku accounts doesn't mean you can't use the same credentials for apps like netflix and Amazon prime and others.

Re: How to add another family member with their own profile preferences
How is this not a thing at this point? You (Roku) offer premium channels much like Prime Video using The Roku Channel. It's time to fix this because it's beyond annoying!

Agreed, I do not want to manage two separate accounts, nor do I want my kids Roku to have the same channels as mine. How is it everyone else gets this?

I manage two accounts. That's how it's done. At least, unless and until Roku introduces a Profiles or some other feature. I have no knowledge about such, and could not say if I did know. But I don't know.

Re: How to add another family member with their own profile preferences
That is my point though, they need profiles. I am not creating 5 separate accounts so everyone can have their own account and then manage each one. even two or three is no for me, it is a work around, but not acceptable. My phone has profiles, my tablet has profiles, most streaming services have some sort of profile. Apple TV gets it. I am not an apple fan at all but they profiles. Amazon fire stick... has profiles. Roku.. nope.
