Use several Google accounts

If you have a work and a personal calendar, or several accounts, give each one its own Next Up by URLflows window. Each window keeps its own settings, so they never overwrite each other.

Name your windows

In Settings, on the Windows tab, type a name under Window name, such as Work or Personal. It appears as a badge in the header, in the tab title and in the taskbar, and its first letter goes on the tab's icon, so you can tell windows apart.

Open a window for another account

  1. On the same Windows tab, open Using more than one Google account?
  2. Type a New window name and click Open new window. It opens in a new tab, on a different theme so the two are easy to tell apart. Drag the tab out to make it a window of its own.
  3. In the new window, run setup while signed in to the other account, with its own copy of the script.

Each window keeps its own name, calendar link, key, calendars, alerts, sounds, layout and theme. The main window's settings are tied to where the file is saved; a window you open here keeps its settings under its window name instead. Your Next Up by URLflows windows lists them all, with an Open button for each, so you can reopen any of them. Settings → Backup saves every window in one file.

Work and personal side by side

For a Google Workspace account, download the Workspace version, which has setup instructions written for work accounts; use the personal version for your own account. They're separate files, so they keep separate settings automatically.

Tip: one Chrome profile per account

If Chrome is signed in to several Google accounts at once, Google can pick the wrong one when Next Up asks for your calendar. A separate Chrome profile for each account avoids that.
