Prevent family members switching profiles

@Fraser_Andrew

Hi… no need to be upset. 😉

You can invite any existing Deezer free account to join your family account instead of using profiles. The invited account uses its own account data to log in. 

Yes, but a family account should have parental controls only profiles have those, I would have no control over invited accounts. 

@Fraser_Andrew 

I agree with you that there‘s just the control option to invite or to kick out other accounts. 
Kids mode on profiles is more a kind of content filter for recommendations. It’s not a control option to allow or to forbid content. Imo that’s also not what Deezer wants to have profiles for. 

Indeed. I guess Deezer should examine whether a "family subscription" is appropriate or misleading marketing. I've cancelled my subscription now in favour of iTunes. Hopefully this will filter down and a proper family profile will become available.... There is a market for it. 

Thanks for sharing.

Wow! I just signed up and I think I’m about to cancel straight away. What is the point of an Admin account, when everyone on the profile has access to it? I’m sure my kids will love being admin when I’m not around. and there is no point giving them their own account as then they just become their own admins anyway??? Pretty useless option. An admin should have solo access and rights to certain areas and functions of how the account works. If it doesn’t, then its not an admin.

Thanks for your feedback @BrRo. At the moment it works like that but I’ll pass your honest feedback to our developers as other users have raised this in the past as well.
Apologies for the inconvenience.
 

I think it's safe to assume that if Deezer hasn't remedied this issue after 4 years it isn't a priority for them to figure it out? It really is too bad because there is a huge demand for having profiles that can attract popular content that is not explicit for tween age children who don't want lullabies and kiddie music, but that parents don't want for them to have access to the full array of adult music by easily accessing other users (aka adults) profiles.

Please address the issue of Deezer Family Admin not having password protection for content preferences for the kids profiles.  

This is critical to ensuring safe browsing and music streaming for families.  

Please let us know the status on this as soon as possible.  Deezer may not be an option for our family if this is not addressed. 

Thanks so much!

I would love to switch my family over to deezer as we’re currently on a trial, but this is a deal breaker for us.
