Profiles in Comet Browser

A profile in Comet Browser is like your personal browsing space. It stores your bookmarks, history, saved passwords, extensions, and preferences in one place. With a profile, you can keep your browsing organized and secure without mixing it with someone else’s.

Think of it like a separate desk in the same office—everything you need is right there, without getting mixed with others’ things.

Why Profiles Matter

  • Privacy: Profiles help keep your data separated, especially when sharing a device.
  • Personalization: Each profile remembers your theme, homepage, and layout.
  • Convenience: No need to log in again and again—your saved passwords and accounts stay ready.

How to Create a Profile in Comet

When you open Comet for the first time, it will ask you to set up a profile. If you want to add more later:

  1. Open Comet Browser.
  2. Click the Profile icon at the top-right corner.
  3. Select Add Profile.
  4. Choose a name, theme, and icon.
  5. Your profile is ready with its own space for bookmarks, settings, and history.

You can customize everything—install extensions, change privacy options, or sync data with your Comet account.

Multiple Profiles in Comet Browser

While one profile works for most people, sometimes you need more. Multiple profiles in Comet let you create separate spaces for different parts of your life. For example, you can keep one profile for work, another for personal use, and even one for family.

Benefits of Multiple Profiles

  • Separation of tasks: No mixing of work and personal bookmarks or logins.
  • Focused browsing: Switch to your work profile when working, and personal profile when relaxing.
  • Different setups: Each profile can have its own theme, extensions, and homepage.
  • Account flexibility: Stay logged into multiple accounts at once, without signing in and out.

How to Add and Switch Profiles

Adding a profile works the same way as creating the first one:

  1. Click the Profile icon in the top-right.
  2. Select Add Profile and enter a name (e.g., “Work”, “Personal”).
  3. Pick a theme or color so you can tell them apart.

To switch, just click the Profile icon again and choose the profile you want. Each one opens in its own window with its own history and settings.

Removing or Editing Profiles in Comet

Managing profiles in Comet isn’t just about adding new ones—it’s also about keeping them up-to-date or removing those you don’t need. This ensures your browser stays organized and clutter-free.

  • OPen the Profile Manager
    Click the profile icon in the top-right corner of Comet. From here, you can view and manage all profiles in one place.
  • Edit Profile Details
    Update a profile’s name, avatar, or color theme to keep it distinct. Personalizing each profile makes it easier to switch between them without confusion.
  • Remove a Profile
    If a profile is no longer useful, delete it. Comet will erase its browsing history, bookmarks, and saved settings from your device.

Workflow Tips for Everyday Use

Profiles in Comet can be more than just separate spaces—they can actively improve your workflow. With the right setup, you can stay focused and organized while browsing.

  • Separate Work and Personal Life
    Keep one profile dedicated to work and another for personal tasks. This separation avoids mixing logins, bookmarks, or distracting tabs.
  • Stay Synced Across Devices
    Link your profiles with a Perplexity account to keep your data, settings, and bookmarks consistent on every device you use.
  • Use Guest Profiles for Privacy
    When sharing a computer, guest profiles let others browse freely while keeping your personal information private.

Comet Single vs. Multiple Profiles: Which Should You Use?

Choosing between one profile or several depends on how you browse. Comet gives you the flexibility to pick what works best.

  • Single Profile
    Best if you only need one browsing environment where everything—history, bookmarks, and passwords—is stored together. It’s simple and efficient.
  • Multiple Profiles
    Ideal if you share a device, juggle different accounts, or want to keep work, study, and personal browsing separate. Each profile has its own custom settings, so switching between them is seamless.
