For users who use both personal and company accounts, this update solves a long-standing pain point of logging in and switching. In the past, users who wanted to switch between personal and work agent accounts often had to repeatedly log out and log back in; now they can switch between the two accounts simply from the account menu or "Settings — Switch account."

OpenAI emphasizes that after switching accounts, chat history, memory, files, and settings all change with the selected account, and workspaces belong only to the corresponding account. Accounts do not share conversation history, file uploads, or memory content, nor do they merge billing, subscriptions, or workspaces.

Note, however, that switching accounts does not migrate chat history from one account to another; if you need to use paid features on a new account, you still need a separate subscription.

In terms of usage rules, users can have more than two ChatGPT accounts, but only two can be logged in at the same time on the same device. If two accounts are already logged in, one must be logged out before a new account can be added; creating a second account itself is free, and new accounts default to the free plan.

On mobile, notifications can also be received according to each account's settings and device permissions. When a user taps a notification for another account, the app switches to that account and opens the relevant content, making it convenient to handle messages under different identities in a timely manner.
