Opening the TV app I'm met with the "you have to be 16 or older" my samsung account has the right DOB my Google play has the right DOB so why would it not let me use the app? Doesn't make any sense to me and I can't find anywhere that will let me input the right information anyway... Anyone have a fix for this please let me know.

Thanks.

I think it's the profile on your phone you need to adjust.

Hi @_Shane_ 

Did you also set the DOB on your Google Account? I assume that TV is a Google App and it must be using the Google account.

Go into Settings -> Accounts and backup -> Manage accounts 

Tap Google account -> Personal info and check Birthday.

Ended up in a chat with Samsung support. I must have misclicked something when setting up the terms and conditions. They told me to do the same thing and try again, which ended up working.

2. When you startup and it asks you about vendors click 'Configure'
3. When it popsup with vendor approval DO NOT press reject all
4. Scroll down and deselect 'Store and/or access...' and 'Personalised advertising...'
