PS5 owners, I've offered to share my PS account with my Dad so he can access the games etc. is it just a case of me logging in on his console? Can he select his account to auto login on his PS5 after I've done it? Don't want him messing up my own account 😂 - ThreadSky

Pretty sure you have to make his console your home console and then you log in as you on your ps5 so you access your purchases. May be wrong though

So similar to how my twins do with their Xboxes? I can do it all ok his though? Log on, make it my home PS5 and that's it? Don't see him that much and doesn't live local (visiting on Saturday)

Wait for someone else to come along but that should pair purchases to that console and to your account, effectively your taking your games from your console (his console) to a friends to play (your account and console). I might be wrong.

Pretty much, yeah.

You need to log in, then set it as your primary console. Then anyone else who logs in to that console has access to your library

Sound, thank you. Thought it might have been just like that. And it's easy enough for them to use after that? Can it be set to auto log on to his own account when he turns it on?

Yep

Actually, i’m not sure on auto log, but it’ll take you to login page with the available accounts and he just picks his

Brilliant, cheers for the help.
