FAQ
  • How do I find my Hulu username and password?

    Unless you're logged in, you won't see your Hulu username, which is the email you used to set up your account. If you are signed in, you can find this information by hovering over your name in the upper-right corner of the website and clicking Account. You can't find this information in the app.

  • How do I put a password on a Hulu profile?

    You can lock access to a non-Kids Hulu profile behind a PIN. To set one up, go to your Account page and click the Profiles tab. Click the switch next to PIN Protection to turn the feature on; it will automatically prompt you to create a PIN, which will then become necessary to access all adult profiles on the account.
