Huawei: Switch Between User Accounts

Huawei phones running EMUI support multiple user profiles, each with separate apps, data, and settings. This is useful for shared devices, but switching between profiles is not always obvious once the initial setup prompt is gone.

The fastest way is through the quick settings panel. Pull down from the top of the screen to open it, then tap the User icon and choose the account you want to activate. This works from any screen without opening any app first.

If you prefer a fixed menu location, the same switch is available inside the Settings app. This route takes a few more taps but is easier to remember if you rarely change accounts.

Switching accounts logs out the current profile and loads the selected one with its own home screen, apps, and settings. Any unsaved work in the previous profile stays untouched and reappears once you switch back.

If quick settings does not show a User icon, no additional profiles have been created yet, or the option was hidden during setup. In that case, create a new user first before trying to switch.
