Separate Roku TV settings

I want to have parental control settings on my son’s tv without those restrictions & settings applied to my tv in my room. Is that possible? If so, how?

Re: Separate Roku TV settings

@mora_sd-

Roku parental controls, such as they are, are attached to the Roku account, not to individual Roku units.

To have separate parental controls for you son's Roku you would need to factory reset it and set it up with its own separate Roku account, using a different email address.  Keep the password for this account secret if you don't want him to be able to change the settings.

Any paid subscriptions you have through Roku are connected to your current account and will not travel to this new account.
