One way to personalize your account on Netflix is to pick profile icons based on your favorite show, to differentiate your profile from all the others associated with your account.
Netflix lets you pick a small square icon to define your profile, from a selected list based on its popular shows and movies. You can find a list below of which properties are included.
However, this list changes quite a bit, as Netflix often removes shows from its profile icon list. And so if you find an icon you like, you better pick it and hold onto it. Check out our best shows on Netflix guide for series to enjoy on the streaming service.
