Disney+ is a great service for families, but that also means that everyone gets to have their own profile. If you want to ensure that everyone has their own favorite shows and movies, you need to create separate profiles that are easily identifiable. And what better way to identify your Disney+ profile than with an avatar of your favorite character?
How Many Profiles Does Disney+ Allow?
Before we even discuss changing your profile image on Disney+, we have to ensure everyone knows how many people can watch the service.
Disney+ allows you to create up to seven different profiles. That includes your own and six additional profiles you can create for your friends or family members.
Each profile, whether created for adults or children, will feature its own watch history and receive personal recommendations based on said history. Please keep in mind that while you may create seven profiles, not everyone will be able to watch Disney+ simultaneously.
How to Change Your Profile Picture on Disney+
Whether you're just now setting up your profile picture on Disney+ or you've been here a while and don't remember how to change it, we're here to help you out.
Disney+ offers a versatile collection of profile pictures. They have massive collections with all your favorite heroes and villains from Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, or National Geographic. You can choose a Mickey Mouse avatar, go for Simba, Peter Pan, Maleficent, Moana, one of the characters from The Simpsons, The Muppets, X-Men, or even Zendaya. They more or less match the numerous Disney+ collections, which is something you can also learn more about.

Go for Your Favorites
Whether you've chosen your favorite character or just an avatar that somewhat looks like you, you should make them easy to differentiate. If you have kids and want to make sure they only view their profiles, you can implement strict parental controls, too.
