7 Ways to Customize Your Hulu Experience for Maximum Enjoyment
By Ed Malaker
Hulu provides a fantastic user experience right out of the box, with an intuitive and informative interface. However, there are several ways to personalize your experience to make the time you spend on the platform even better.
Personalize your experience with profiles
One of the first things you can do to personalize Hulu is to set up your profile. Hulu allows you to create up to six individual profiles, so you can create a separate viewing history and get personalized recommendations for each member of your household.
Profiles help you get tailored content based on your watching preferences.
Track your favorite content with My Stuff
“My Stuff” is a feature that helps you keep track of shows and movies you’re interested in. You can manually add titles to My Stuff to get updates when new episodes are available or when certain content is about to expire.
Get better recommendations
To improve the recommendations you get from Hulu, you can like and dislike the movies and shows that you watch, which helps the algorithm understand you on a deeper level. Consistent use will make it even better, and you’ll find it a lot easier to find things you like, even when choosing a random title.
Manage your watch history for cleaner recommendations
Another way to improve the recommendations that you get from Hulu is to manage your watch history by removing items that no longer interest you.
Personalize your ad experience
Hulu’s ad-supported plans let you customize the types of ads you see. By using Hulu’s Ad Selector feature, you can choose between different advertisers and ads, ensuring the commercials you watch are more relevant to you.
Download content
If you’re using the Hulu (No Ads) plan, you can download select shows and movies for offline viewing when you’re on the go and don’t have access to Wi-Fi.
Set up a Hulu Watch Party
If you have friends with a Hulu account, you can set up a Hulu Watch Party to watch shows and movies together in real-time. The Watch Party features a group chat, so you can share your reactions instantly.
