Professional and Personal accounts on same device

Is it possible to have a professional and personal/consumer account on the same mobile phone or in the same messenger app?

I have recently been assigned a professional inreach account for work, but I want to use my personal inreach account for non-work messaging. Is this possible without signing out from one account and signing in with the other because this is not possible outside of  mobile network. 

if this is not possible, can this feature be added? I have several colleagues with the same issue. Others must have this problem or will in the future.

  • While you are unable to switch between a professional and consumer account without logging out. We are always looking to improve the experience with our app and we would like to get this idea heard.

  • I have a similar problem. Specifically with a work account that is used specifically for an inReach connected to Explore and Messenger and my personal account that I use with a Forerunner linked to Connect.  Is there also no way to log in to a different account with different apps?

    If not I'd really like to suggest that given that the peripherals involved in the different apps can be used for very different purposes. inReach devices are so very commonly used for work safety and nobody really needs their employer-managed account having access to their health stats so definitely not really a login you want to merge.

    Also, I use the inReach in locations where I don't have internet, so just switching logins every time I want to use my work safety device or sync my watch is also not actually feasible. Being able to login to two accounts and switch as needed and/or separate which app logs into which account would be so, so, so very useful.
