Is it possible to have 2 logged in sessions?

    I have two computers but I am only ever using 1 at a time. Office (laptop + iPad), Studio @ Home (desktop + stream deck).

    Is it a real pain to have to log into the website, log out of my other session. Then open the password manager and TFA to copy the info to log in each and every time I sit down, particularly difficult on the desktop without a fingerprint for passwords.

    I have no desire to use both at the same time because I don't allow the laptop in the studio. It's a dedicated space with a Streamdeck setup that I just want to sit down and jump in.

    Is there a way that when the computer is locked it logs out/suspends the session?

    Thanks!

        Thanks for contacting SoundFlow support.

        Please note, that the best way to get help with a script, macro or other content installed from the Store or content that you've made yourself, is to select the script/macro, then click the red Need help button, and then click "Get help with this script or macro".
        By using this method, we will get access to more information and so should be able to help you quicker.

        If you're seeing an error that isn't related to scripts or macros, and you think this is a bug in SoundFlow, please file a Help/Issue bug report.

          Hi Keith,

          You can use the "Switch user" button instead (if you're the only person who has access to both computers). Before you leave your home rig, click "Switch user". This logs out your session but keeps your credentials, so when you come back, you won't have to re-enter your password. Do the same when you leave your studio.

          Alternatively, just shut down the computer when you're leaving (and your session will be cleared), or, quit SoundFlow (click SF icon -> Quit). But the "Switch user" workflow is probably the easiest.

          Note that it's called "Switch user" because it allows you to quickly switch the active session between different users on the same computer, but in this case you'd be using its functionality to close sessions yet keep credentials.

              The switching user is working! Thanks!
