Accounts limit in Edge for iOS and iPadOS
I am a heavy user of the account feature, as it is perfect when you are working from a lot of different Office 365 admin logins.
In Edge Chromium for Windows 10 and MacOS there don’t seem to be a limit on the number of accounts, but on my iPhone and iPad I can create only one Microsoft account (primary) and one Work account. Is this going to change?
Ole Thomsen Thanks for letting us know that you'd like to see that as an iOS feature. I'll pass this on to our mobile browser team and loop back with you if they have any additional feedback.

We can vote for the ability to have more than 1x personal profile + 1x work profile for Edge on iOS here:

Project & Community Manager - Microsoft EdgeThis still seems to be impossible. Is there any update on when this will be available?
It really is a must feature for people with more than one work account. Switching between accounts is a great solution on my Mac but I just cannot understand why this isn’t a thing on IPhone/ IPad. The inability to do so literally bothers me everyday.Any news on this? I’m basically using chrome and safari as other profiles as edge doesn’t support more. Would be great if I could keep it all in edge.
- I’m in the same boat here myself. Trying to do some work on leave and man could I do with at least 4 profiles in order to do my work.
This is also being discussed here, with MS encouragement of using feedback

However the staff member appears to have potentially left Microsoft.
REALLY could do with this as the iPad I’m using on holiday is surprisingly more than enough for a good portion of tasks but this in particular is holding me right back. I actually like using Edge, specifically for work.
- Any updates from Microsoft on this one? I am in the same boat. I have 6-8 business AAD profiles (4 for the schools I work with, 3 for my church and another ministry where I volunteer/serve with, and a "personal" business account/MS Partner tenant) I am usally bouncing between and through in there 2 or 3 personal MSA accounts as well, most of which are used for separate synced browser profiles on many of the 6 or so various PCS that I am regularly on. Would LOVE it if I could add those profiles to my iPhone (as well as my Android, but know this thread is referencing iOS), as would make my job (and personal) life, as far as browsers go, MUCH more usable, matching use of Edge on the PC'S that I bounce between.
Thanks for listening!

- Hi,
how about offline accounts? still limited?- Offline accounts? Do you mean accounts that are not synced?
I cannot find any way to create more accounts than the two described.
