ViacomCBS said it is adding new features to CBS All Access for kids and families ahead of the streaming service being rebranded as Paramount Plus early next year.
CBS All Access is letting subscribers create as many as six profiles per account and manage each profile with “Kids Mode.” Kids Mode allows parents to limit access to programming for older or younger children based on content ratings. Parents can also use a PIN code to control access to mature content.
