Hi. Nope, is not possible unless the OS provides facilities to deal with users and switch betweeen them (like Linux, MacOS). In that case it is already the default behaviour.

AFAIK we don't support multiuser in Android, or at least it wasn't tested.

And, as a feature request, I would say also no. It is a major PITA. The entire program was designed to run the way it runs and implementing multiuser profiles while preserving compatibility is too much work with no real benefit.

It should be waaay easier, albeit hackier, just to have two different instances of the program on two different directories of your ereader and start one or the other based on the user.

Hackier, in this context, is good. Have fun.
