Movistar Plus+, the streaming platform operated by Telefónica, has introduced significant updates designed to improve user experience and align with the offerings of leading video-on-demand services. If you’re using Movistar Plus+ through a UHD decoder, you might have noticed some visual and functional enhancements, particularly with the profile management features.
Streamlined Profile Management for Enhanced Personalization
As of last February, Movistar Plus+ users may have observed a change in the profile icon’s color to pink, featuring the label “Home” at the top right of the menu. This marks a shift towards a more personalized viewing experience, allowing users to set up individual profiles. Each profile can track viewing history and generate customized recommendations, thus tailoring the service to match the specific tastes and preferences of every household member.
Benefits of Using Individual Profiles
The introduction of distinct profiles offers numerous advantages:
- Weiter schauen: Users can pause and later resume movies or series right where they left off.
- Personalisierte Empfehlungen: The “For me” section displays content suggestions based on individual viewing habits.
- Meine Liste: Allows users to save titles they wish to watch later.
- Easy Channel Access: Streamlines access to frequently watched channels.
These features, while available on the general “Home” profile, become more effective when used through individual profiles, as they avoid the clutter of combined recommendations and lists.
Child Profile Configuration for Safe Viewing
Movistar Plus+ also caters to families with children through a special child profile option, which includes content appropriate for viewers under 12 years of age. Channels accessible through this profile include Disney Channel, Dreamworks, Nickelodeon, and others. Crucially, a PIN protects this profile, preventing children from switching to content that is not age-appropriate, with “1111” set as the default PIN, which can be changed in the settings menu.
How to Access and Manage Profiles
Profile management and setup can be done directly through the UHD decoder interface, where users can easily add or modify profiles based on their household needs. For detailed guidance on compatible devices and more information, users are encouraged to visit the Movistar help page.
These updates not only enhance the viewing experience by making it more organized and personalized but also ensure that all family members have appropriate and tailored content at their fingertips.
These new features by Movistar Plus+ signify a substantial improvement in how users interact with the platform, making it a more valuable and enjoyable experience for diverse viewership.
