Multiple user accounts

Your device supports multiple user accounts so that different users can log in separately
to the device and use it. For example, different users can have different home screen
setups, wallpaper and general settings, as well as separate memory storage. So they
can install their own applications and store files such as music and photos that only they
can access. Multiple user accounts work well in situations where different family or group
members share the same device.
The user who sets up the device for the first time becomes the owner of the device. The
owner is the administrator or primary user. Once you are logged in as the owner, you
can add, change and delete other users via the Settings menu. You can add a maximum
of seven new users. As the owner, your account cannot be deleted.
Some features are only available to the owner. For example, only the owner can access the
external SD card.

Different behaviors for settings
Settings can behave in three different ways when a device has multiple users:
•
Some settings can be changed by any user and affect all users, including the owner, for
example, language, Wi-Fi®, Airplane mode, NFC, and Bluetooth®.
•
Some settings affect only the individual user's space, for example, automatic data
syncing, screen lock, various accounts added, and wallpaper.
