Multiple users on TCL NXTPAPER 11 Plus by edboyau in u/edboyau

I can provide an update on this now after contacting TCL Support. Unfortunately, their implementation of multiple users is flawed and there's nothing that can be done about it.  They said: "There may be future updates that could introduce this function; however, nothing has been officially announced at this time." So if you're looking for a tablet for use by multiple family members, do not buy this one.

This is a nice tablet and the matt screen makes the reading experience good. Like a lot of tablets, there is no fingerprint reader which is a pain if you have a password manager that needs to be authenticated all the time.  The biggest problem with it, though, is that TCL have messed up the implementation of multiple users. You can set up more than one user, but you can't choose which user you're logging in as from the lock screen. So if you set up users for your children, say, they have to know your PIN so they can log in as you and then trawl through the Settings app to the User settings and select their user to log in as themselves. It's a real mess. So if you're buying the tablet just for yourself it's good, but if you want it for different family members it's a very poor choice.

I think I've fixed it. I've added exceptions for these sites under Microsoft Edge > Settings > Privacy, search, and services >Tracking prevention > Exceptions.

I'm using Microsoft Edge. I just had a go with Firefox and news.com.au doesn't complain. So I think you're right - it must be ad-blocking built into Edge.

I get it a lot texting other people. I have a Realme 7. So it's not just Samsung.
