Can I update the name of the "Owner" so the ML2 displays a username instead of the word "Owner" when prompting for the password (i.e. "Welcome back, wrichey" instead of "Welcome back, Owner"? I'm currently using Magic Leap Hub 3 and ML2 software version 1.11.0. I do not see a User Profile anywhere in the settings. ---

You can create multiple profiles through the System Settings. However, Android 10 requires the Admin to login once after the device reboots before a user can select a different profile. > **[Using Multiple User Profiles on Device](https://www.magicleap.care/hc/en-us/articles/14817364142221-Using-Multiple-User-Profiles-on-Device)** > > Starting with Magic Leap OS 1.2.0, Magic Leap 2 users with a Developer Pro or Enterprise license can set their devices up to support multiple user profiles.

Thank you for this reply. Can you only add a username if there is more than one user? I do not want to create multiple profiles. I only wish to change the name of the admin user. On my device there is one user and the username is "Owner". In the linked example the admin is "Cian". I don't believe I need any of the other features associated with a Developer Pro or Enterprise license. Do I need one of these licenses in order to change my admin username? ---

We use the same flow as Android 10, so to change the name of the Admin you would go to the device's Settings \> System \> Multiple users and then click "You (Owner)" to change the name. 🙂 ---

The menu options under Settings\>\>System\>\>Advanced do not include "Multiple users" as pictured in the example. The only options i see are Languages, Capture and Device Stream, Date & time, Reset options, Developer options, and OS Updater Do I need to have a Developer Pro or Enterprise license in order to see the "multiple users" option? ---

I see, you are correct. However, this will not be the case in OS version 1.12.0. ---

Thank you. This question is solved with v1.12. I followed the instructions for multiple users lined above ( [Using Multiple User Profiles on Device – Care | Magic Leap](https://www.magicleap.care/hc/en-us/articles/14817364142221-Using-Multiple-User-Profiles-on-Device)) and renamed the admin. Then, the "enable multiple users" toggle can be switched off and the admin name will remain. ---
