What are Profiles?
Profiles make it easy to keep track of the music you love. Each person in your household can have their own profile, and we'll store their
playlists,
tags, play history, and all of their
favorites there, including albums, songs, artists, and more. Profiles also allow for
social sharing and
Last.fm scrobbling.
Valence makes recommendations based on each profile, which
Daily Picks and
Roon Radio will be different for different profiles, even on the same library.
How are Profiles different from my Roon library?
Profiles do not contain library-level changes, so you can't use profiles to have different libraries per user. For that, we suggest using
Focus,
Tags,
Bookmarks, or the profiles' favorites. In essence, this means that the stored music, TIDAL and Qobuz subscriptions connected to your Roon Server are shared across all Profiles that are set up for your system.
Creating and switching profiles
To create additional profiles or switch between them, just click the current profile (available at the top right-hand corner of the screen) then select Manage Profiles, or switch to the desired profile.
You can configure your profile name, photo, Last.FM account for
scrobbling, and Twitter authentication for
social sharing.
