Dual apps
• Dual apps allow you to clone an existing app on your device and use it
independently with a different account.
• You can create dual apps in Manage
apps >
Dual apps
. There you'll
see a list of compatible apps installed on your device.

also be able to see the apps we recommend. Use the switch next to an
app's name to create a dual app.
• Use the search bar at the top of the screen to search for the apps installed
on your device.
• All dual apps have their own Home screen shortcuts. There's a dual app
icon in the corner of the shortcut which might help you tell one app from
another.
• Whenever the system requires an action from an app that has a dual app,
you'll be asked which app will be used.
