I prefer using Trello through the desktop app (Macos) rather than in the browser. Like many people, I have multiple Trello accounts and I want to interact with more than one of them at the same time. Using the "Switch account" functionality is too slow/fiddly.

I've tried opening a second Trello window, but when I switch account in the second window, the account switched in the first window too. Which means I can't use the desktop app to have a board from account A and a board from account B open at the same time.

Does anyone else find this to be a pain?

@Seb Rose 

Does using incognito works for you? Or a different browser like Chrome and Safari?

Yes, that does work, but I am asking about the Trello DESKTOP app.

For now, I'll have to use a browser to get the workflow that I need.

Seb, I have exactly the same requirement. The Trello fat client should be able to be associate separate windows to different accounts, just as Google Chrome does it.

 

Does Atlassian have any page where one can request new functionality?
