Multiple accounts on Microsoft Edge Android
Hi there, I am switching to Microsoft Edge on android for the first time from Chrome on my mom's phone as my phone is dead and I cannot have a new one due to lockdown. I was checking if I can create a new profile i.e. my profile to my mom's profile but I am not seeing the option so I am asking that can we add multiple profiles on android Edge(Excluding work or school account) by any way or there is no option in Edge Android? I am using Edge(Stable) version 45.03.4.4955
Deleted TheShaunSaw Unfortunately Edge on Mobile platforms only supports 1 personal and 1 work/school account for now. Definitely file feedback in the app so that we can prioritize this work for you.
- MegaroenyCopper ContributorI also want to be able to switch profiles. I don't use Office/Microsoft for work, so I can't use this feature as is. I just want to use my second account that I use for work-related bookmarks and synced data. Thank you!
- cupcakezealotBrass ContributorI currently use Edge and Edge Dev as "profiles", since I don't set default browsers in Android, but it would be nice to have profile support from Desktop built in (especially if it has "Open link in [profile]".

- ranjithmCopper ContributorWow. Thats is almost an oversight. I'm trying to switch from Chrome to Edge and this is a major drawback.
1. Can't have multiple personal accounts on android edge.
2. Can't sync work account between android and windows. Needs administrator to enable it!
Both of these aren't a problem with Chrome!
