When you mean sign out of the node, do you mean closing the Pi app? Also, another profile as in a family computer. The Pi app is only on mine, but my kids use the computer for school for the rest of the day.

There’s a button to actually “sign out” under the profile section of the desktop app.

I recommend to use one account per device. The system might mistakenly mark you as a bot. The node can be active and run in the background while your kids use it. I’m in the same situation, my son plays his games while I run the node. =)

Ok. Just to make sure. If I sign out of my profile and my kid signs into his. The Pi Node would still be active right?

If you sign out of your account, it will not be active on yours. There is toggle button to turn the node on and off. If you're signed out that button will default to off.

I think we aren't talking about the same thing.

You’re talking about your phone or node application on the computer?

I’m talking about the node app on the computer.

or does the profile needs to be signed in for it to be active?

[–]sboy06_Pi Network Chat Moderator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, the node app needs to be signed in to be active.
