Switch Apple TV+ account on an iPad

Hi all

a quick question.

As a proud owner of a family account, I am sharing my TV+ subscription with wife and 2 kids.

We (me and my wife) usually train on our bike using the same iPad. She is using my account to watch TV+ while training , so bookmarks are stored on my profile/account. I would like to know if there is a way to switch account a-la Netflix. My kids both have their own iPad so the problem is just for our accounts (and I wouldn’t want to buy a 4th iPad…)

thanks

iPad is intended as a one-user centric device. Apple doesn’t use multiple profiles within one account à la Netflix. Account switching on iPad goes much deeper than a single entertainment app, and may (will) break other functionality. Not recommended to do.

If she wants to watch something like Apple TV+ while training, then there may be better options that do not involve iPad. E.g. an actual TV.
