About the restricted profile
You can add restricted profiles, which only allow restricted access to apps from the
owner account. For example, you can create a restricted profile for children to
prevent them from playing games or viewing mature content from your account. You
can add up to seven restricted profiles on your device.

device for the first time.
2
From your Home screen, tap
3 Find and tap Settings > Users > Add user or profile.
4
Tap Restricted profile. A list of available apps appears.
5 To name the profile, tap New profile and enter a name, then tap OK.
6
Drag the relevant slider to the right beside the apps to which you want to grant
access.
If you don't have a PIN, password, or pattern set up as your screen lock when you are adding
a restricted profile, after tap Restricted profile in step 4, you will be asked to set up a screen
lock and select an option about how to display notifications on your lock screen. Please follow
the on-screen instructions you are prompted with. For more information about notification
display options on the lock screen, see

There are three different types of settings on devices with multiple users:
•
Settings that can be changed by any user and affect all users. Examples include
language, Wi-Fi, Airplane mode, NFC and Bluetooth®.
•
Settings that only affect an individual user account. Examples include automatic data
syncing, screen lock, various accounts added, and wallpaper.
•
Settings that are only visible to the owner and affect all users, for example, VPN
settings.
