Is it possible to have multiple users in using 1 mobile device?

 

If it is possible how to set it up?  Since when the app is starting up, the user-id-field cannot be changed.

If it’s not possible, do you know why it’s not possible to have multiple users?

 

Thanks in advance for your enlightenment.
...and Happy Holidays and Happy New Year 2022!

Hi @JuniSihombing,

The application initialises using a login so only one login can be used for each initialised application. You can change user but that means re-initialising the app on the device which would wipe the previous app and its data.

Two users can use the same device if they share logins but you cannot have more than one concurrent login for FSM mobile on the one device.

I think the only way you could ever get two would be to have two different FSM mobile apps created and distributed and then installing both on the device, one with each user, but I do not believe there would be anything stopping user 2 from accessing user 1’s app on the device either by accident or on purpose.

So really either each user gets their own device or there is a pool login that is used that is shared between multiple users with the knowledge that everything would then be shared between all users with that login.

Kind regards,

Thanks for the explanation, @Lee Pinchbeck :thumbsup:

I wonder if logging in to a different profile can work in this case?

I know windows and android support multiple profiles.

It requires some testing of course. But potentially, it can work?!

Cheers!
