Is it possible to disable parental control. I’m 70 and my wife is 60 and it’s stupid inputting a PIN

We want to disable parental controls before the watershed as it's annoying having to input a PIN every time we want to watch a program.

hi @Tonym123 

 

Unfortnately not - When SKY Atlantic & other channels show certain material before the relevant 'watershed' it will always be present & you cannot turn it off

Do, however,  check that all the relevant options in Parental Controls are appropriately set but as I say you may need it for some

Our advice is to set the PIN to something like 1111 to help enter it when needed

@Tonym123 It's not possible to remove the PIN requirement for content before the watershed, that is down to OfCom rules.
