Setting up your profiles the right way helps you work faster, stay organized, and avoid mix-ups. This guide walks you through the basics – from naming your profiles to using cookies, tags, and notes. 

Ready to level up your profile game? Let’s dive in!

Profile name

Good news: only you (and your team, if shared) can see your profile names – websites can’t. So feel free to name them whatever helps you stay organized! Here are some quick tips:

• Be specific: include the platform or purpose (e.g., “FB_Ad_Team1” or “Amazon_Seller_UK”)
• Keep it short & readable: 2–4 words max (e.g., “LinkedIn_LeadGen_Alice”)
• Follow a naming rule (if in a team): so everyone stays in sync and finds what they need faster

Profile template

Pick a template in this section. Our profile template manager lets you save custom setups (like proxy, fingerprint, OS) and apply them in a click. Perfect for high-volume workflows or keeping things consistent across your team.

Why use it?

• Save time on repeated setups
• Reduce errors with ready-made templates
• Bulk-create profiles fast and stay consistent

Folder

Organize profiles into custom folders – perfect for sorting by client, project, or status. Add notes, drag and drop profiles, and keep your dashboard clutter-free.

Browser profiles and cloud phones use separate folder systems. That means:

• Cloud phones can only be placed in phone folders
• Browser profiles can only be placed in browser folders
• Folders are not shared or synced between the two types

Pre-made cookies

Tags

Add up to 10 color-coded tags per profile, making it super easy to group, filter, and find what you need – fast. Use them for clients, workflows, or anything else that fits your setup.

Tags are workspace-based and shared between browser profiles and cloud phones. If you create a tag in the mobile section, it will also be available for browser profiles – and vice versa.

Why use tags?

• Find profiles quickly with tag-based filtering
• Keep things tidy with reusable, workspace-wide labels

➡️ Check out the full guide to start tagging like a pro.

Note

The notes feature lets you add short comments to individual profiles or entire folders. It’s perfect for reminders, status updates, or sharing quick context with your team. Max 400 characters – short and sweet!

Startup tab behavior

With this feature, you can either restore previous tabs or open up to 10 custom start URLs every time you start a profile – perfect for skipping the routine and getting straight to work.

Why use it?

• Save time by opening key pages on launch
• Manage multiple accounts effortlessly

➡️ Check the full guide to get set up with custom URLs in seconds.

Operating system

Pick the OS that matches your real device – like macOS, Windows, or Linux. This helps keep your browser fingerprint consistent and less suspicious.

Browser

Multilogin offers two browser options, both built for privacy and stealth: Mimic (Chrome-based) and Stealthfox (Firefox-based). Each one includes advanced fingerprint protection, so websites see you as a real, unique user – not a bot.

Here’s what you need to know:

• ✅ Use Mimic for Chrome compatibility, powerful automation, and ongoing support
• ⚠️ Use Stealthfox only if you must have Firefox-style behavior or extensions
• 🚫 Stealthfox is legacy – no more core updates (latest version: v146)
• 🚀 Mimic is the future – better speed, active development, and long-term reliability

Storage

Multilogin lets you choose between cloud and local profile storage depending on how you work:

• Cloud storage – access profiles from anywhere, ideal for team use
• Local storage – faster load times on one device, perfect for solo work

Easily switch between types or convert anytime. ➡️ Check out the full guide on how storage types work to pick your setup and stay in control.
