Use two or more accounts of the same app on one phone, each signed in separately. Switch between personal and work accounts in a tap, with no logging out and back in. Dual Accounts keeps every account apart: your second Instagram never sees your first one, and signing out of one account leaves the others exactly as they were. Run multiple accounts side by side, keep them private, and manage them all from one secure app. HOW IT WORKS 1. Tap Add and pick an app, or type any website. 2. Give the account a name, like "Work" or "Personal". 3. Sign in once. Next time it opens already signed in. Add the same app as many times as you need, and each copy keeps its own login. KEY FEATURES • Multiple accounts, fully separate Add two, three or more accounts of the same app. Each keeps its own login and its own session, so you stay signed in to all of them at once without one account affecting another. • 50+ popular social apps Use popular apps like Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp, X, Snapchat, Messenger, Telegram, LinkedIn, Gmail, Threads, Discord, TikTok, Pinterest, Reddit and Teams. • Add any website as a custom app Missing an app? Type its web address, give it a name, and it sits on your Home screen like any other account. • 30+ AI tools in one place Open popular AI tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, DeepSeek, Claude, Copilot and Perplexity next to your accounts, and keep separate logins for each. • Games Quick browser games like 8 Ball Pool, Ludo, Slither.io and UNO, one tap away. • Live Cricket Live scores and ball-by-ball highlights for every match, plus up-to-date match information, team rankings and player statistics. • Private Gallery Hide photos and videos from your phone's gallery in a passcode-protected vault. Organise them into albums, view them full screen, and export them back to your phone whenever you like. • Cloud Backup Back up your Private Gallery to secure cloud storage. Restore it on a new phone or after reinstalling the app, and choose exactly which photos and videos to bring back. • My Files A built-in file manager with folders. Import documents, scan pages with your camera, add photos and open files from other apps, all kept inside Dual Accounts. • Private Notes Write notes that stay behind your passcode, with the date and time saved on each one. • Music Import your own audio files and play them inside the app. • Usage and Time Limits See how much time you spend in each app, AI tool and game, and set daily limits so you stay in control of your screen time. • Passcode and Face ID Lock the whole app with a passcode or Face ID. Set a recovery email so you can get back in if you ever forget your passcode. • Private Browser Browse the web without saving your history. • Brand new design A fresh, modern look with Light and Dark themes, built to be faster and smoother. PREMIUM Upgrade to remove ads, add unlimited apps and unlock Cloud Backup. Weekly, monthly, yearly and lifetime plans are available. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and can be managed in your account settings. SUPPORT Questions or feedback?
