01Protecting Family Smart TVs

Modern IPTV players include robust parental restrictions to ensure children only view family-appropriate programming.

Most popular applications—such as HotPlayer—allow parents to set 4-digit security PINs to restrict adult or violent content.

Browse our curated family and children's content options in the channels directory.

02Setting Up Master PIN Codes

In HotPlayer, navigate to Settings -> Parental Controls -> Turn On. Enter a 4-digit passcode, then check the categories you wish to lock behind the PIN.

In HotPlayer, access Settings -> Parental Control to set an access PIN. Review our step-by-step setup tutorials for your specific hardware.

03Hiding Unwanted Categories & Feeds

Beyond locking with a PIN, you can completely hide mature categories from the main channel guide so they never appear during casual channel browsing.

For instructions on hardware compatibility across screens, check our device hub.

04Requesting Server-Side Playlist Filtering

Prefer not to have adult bouquets sent to your device at all? Our technical team can permanently exclude 18+ content directly at the server level upon request.

Simply send a message to our VIP WhatsApp desk with your order details to request clean family filtering.
