Switch communities
Move between your communities.
How it works
- Desktop
- Mobile
The desktop app uses a tab bar at the top of the window to manage open communities. You can have multiple communities open at once, each in its own tab. Select a tab to switch between them, or close tabs you're no longer using.
- Notification badges: Tabs display a badge showing the number of unread notifications for that community.
- Tab persistence: Your open tabs are remembered between sessions, so you pick up where you left off.
- Tab reordering: Drag tabs to rearrange them in any order you prefer.
The mobile app displays one community at a time. When you open a different community, it replaces the current view.
