In this tutorial, we’ll cover how user profiles are and how the functionality differs from Guest Mode on Android. We’ll also dive into how you can set up multiple user profiles on an Android phone.
What Are User Profiles on Android?
User profiles on a device enable you to share your device with friends and family. Each user profile has its own space on the hard drive for personalized home screens, accounts, and its own apps and settings. This is similar to how multiple users work on macOS or a Microsoft Windows PC. ..
Files, apps, and text messages are not shared between users. This means that each user will have to organize their apps and sign-ins separately (for example, each user will need to sign into their respective Gmail accounts).
- The first type of user is the casual user. They are not interested in using the product and just want to use it for its features.
- The second type of user is the hardcore user. They are very interested in using the product and are willing to do anything to get it working.
- The third type of user is the advanced user. They are very knowledgeable about the product and are able to use it to its full potential.
- The fourth type of user is the expert user. They are very knowledgeable about the product and can use it to do things that no other users can do.
Multiple user profiles can cause your phone to slow down, because each profile has its own storage for apps.
Android supports multiple user accounts, but some devices do not. For example, on the Google Pixel phones, users can have up to two user accounts. However, on Samsung Galaxy phones and Tablets, only one user account is supported. This contrast with Apple where iPhone iOS versions support multiple users.

That’s it! You can now customize your user profile to look and feel the way you want.

How to Use Guest Mode on Android
Guest Mode is a temporary solution that allows you to use your Android phone as if it were your own. It offers the same security protections as a regular Android account, and you can use it to access your phone’s features and data just like a regular user.
- Open the Settings app and navigate to the General section.
- Scroll down and select Guest Mode.
- Toggle on the switch next to it and press OK.
