FULL STORY ======================================================================
Microsoft 365 may finally have sorted out one of the most irritating aspects of using its web apps.
Previously, users looking to work across different Microsoft 365 accounts, whether work or personal, had to sign out and then sign back in when they wanted to switch.
Now, a new update looks set to banish this problem by adding account
switching for Microsoft 365 web apps, saving huge amounts of time and
lowering blood pressure across the platform's global user base. Microsoft 365 account switching
In its official entry in the Microsoft 365 roadmap , the company notes how
the update will simplify working across different accounts going forward.
Users will now be able to sign into multiple work and personal accounts on Microsoft 365 web apps in the same browser, with Microsoft saying they will
be able to "seamlessly switch" between accounts without needing to sign out and sign back in again.
The feature is currently in development, but has a predicted release date of April 2022, meaning users could see it within just a few weeks. Upon release, Microsoft says account switching will be generally available to all Microsoft 365 web users across the world. Read more
