Google-chrome – Multiple Profiles in Chrome all Synced with one Google Account

google-chromesyncuser-profiles

I essentially want to have different environments set up such as a profile for general browsing with personal bookmarks, a work profile, and one profile for every clients websites I work on.

The problem I am finding is that I cannot use a Google Account for more than one profile. This means I can't have all my profiles synced with my other browsers which is a problem as sometimes I would need my work profile at home, or my personal profile at work.

Is there any workaround to be able to get this setup?

Best Answer

chrome://settings/

Under "People," pick "Add Person."

To use the same gmail account for this "person," tick the option to "Control and view the websites this person visits from ."

You will now see a button with the current Person's name. Pick on it and you can switch to a different one.

The only caveat here is that the bookmarks etc. will not sync. So, if you use more than one device on a regular basis, this may not solve your issue.
