  "account": "Apple TV on iPhone now features user profiles in iOS 27.2 beta 1. This long-awaited addition, previously available in tvOS since December 2022's tvOS 26.2 update, finally brings the capability to iPhone users. Upon opening the Apple TV app in this beta version, users are greeted with a screen displaying their existing profiles and the option to add a new one. A 'Don’t Show This Again' button also appears, allowing users to disable the feature if desired. If a child's profile is selected on an iPhone, the TV app on an Apple TV will limit content to TV shows and movies that match the set content rating. This feature is particularly beneficial for parents, ensuring their children's iPhone or iPad usage is safe and appropriate. The introduction of user profiles in iOS 27.2 simplifies the process of managing content for families, making it easier to tailor the Apple TV experience to individual needs.",
