[deleted] Good catch, Sarge! And thanks for including clear instructions on what could be a confusing installation!!

      Is it possible to launch the correct profile directly using this?
      Atm it opens the profile launcher, which and then I needs to select the profile I want to switch to. If it was possible to eliminate last step and have launcher pick correct profile it would be perfect world :)

      Doesn't work in my case. Got "App isn't installed." error. Same issue with Create Shortcut App

        You are using old version.
        Obtanium does not pull latest. Get it from f-droid instead or compile it yourself from the source.

            i have 5 profiles and everyday i have to switch on then many times, every time i have to swipe down the screen, press the icon from the current user then choose the profile i want on that moment to login.
            i think graphene developers could add the SWITCH PROFILE OPTION on power button. so if power button pressed (two times or three times) it would show up a menu with all the profiles to choose. or another way.. like swipe screen to left with 3 fingers or.. up/down with 4 fingers.. shows this menu to switch user..

              mclsza this is no problem with GOS but with the way you use your device. Apparently you switched to better OS but intend to keep your old habits, therefore the need to lock privacy invasive apps away in different profiles. This is just my guess but I bet I am not far off. I think of each profile as a different device albeit with the same IMEI. There is something called cross device tracking. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-device_tracking Maybe this is a good time for you to stop, think and have a little detox.

                +1 for a Feature to switch users via widget or open the user select window via 1 click (instead of swipe, swipe, click).

                  Just as a side note: If you swipe down from the status bar with two fingers, you open the entire quick settings. This saves you at least one swipe

                    I was searching for a quicker solution for switching profiles too.
                    I hoped that the currently useless digital assistant button (Home) via hold/long press on default android, could be used by the graphene os devs to open up the user profile switch menu.
                    I get this is UI and security/privacy comes with it's inconveniences, but this it the part where I lose the most time during daily usage.

                    Adding an intent would suffice, while it's "easy" to swipe down with the two fingers on top + tap + tap, it would be even easier to be able to simply click a widget/shortcut.
                    Ideally an intent with optional parameters, for example launching the activity would open the user selection dialog and giving it a parameter with the account name would launch it directly.
