I am getting Sky Q and have downloaded Sky go to my tablet and to my grandsons tablet.
However I have noticed that my grandson now has access to my account details.
Can I stop this as all I want him to do is watch programmes not access my account?

    Your account is what allows you to watch programmes as it matches your Sky package, so if you don't subscribe to sports you don't get the sports content, etc.

    Had a look yesterday at the two tablets that I have Sky Go on. Can't see any way of making one a "limited" access account. Sky "assume" that you are using all devices yourself. It's probably in the ts & cs.

    How does this help? The problem, as described, is wanting grandson to be able to watch but not change account details
