Starting with Magic Leap OS 1.2.0, Magic Leap 2 users with a Developer Pro or Enterprise license can set their devices up to support multiple user profiles. This feature can be enabled from the Settings menu. This feature is currently in a "preview" state and not all functionality may work as expected.
Enabling Multiple User Support
- Go to "Settings > System"
-
- Select "Advanced", more menu options will appear
- Select "Multiple users"
- In the "Multiple users" menu, toggle the "Off" toggle on
Creating and Modifying Users
- You'll then see a list of users on the device (including a Guest account)
- Selecting the gear icon next to an existing user lets you:
- Rename the user (note: the "Guest" user cannot be renamed)
- Delete the user (note: the "Guest" and admin users cannot be deleted)
- Selecting the gear icon next to an existing user lets you:
- New users can also setup profiles, run custom fit and an option to setup a device lock
- New users can be created from the Settings and from the device lock screen
Switch Users
- You can switch to a different user profile by going to the "Multiple users" menu and selecting the user profile you wish to use
- User profiles can also be switched by select the Magic Leap meteorite icon from the app launcher and select "Switch user"
- Users can be switched from the Lock Menu
-
- In order to enable the capability to switch or create a new user from the lock menu, enable the "Add user from lock screen" toggle
Notes and Known Issues
- When multi-user mode is enabled, app installation's behavior changes
- There is a gear icon next to the Guest user, selecting this brings up a blank menu
- Users are unable to delete themselves; only the admin is able to delete users
- The admin user is required to unlock the device on boot-up, we recommend leaving the device on to avoid this issue when multiple users use the device
