Feature Request: Support registering phone with multiple Google Accounts

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Allow for registering phone with multiple Google Accounts. Works great with one 
or the other of my 
2 Google accounts.

Works great, but would like to be able to send to other phones (i.e. wife's 
phone) without having to log into her account.  Please add an option to allow 
more than one phone and be able to select which phone the link is sent to.

The ability to see which account you're currently logged into would also help, 
without sending the request to the phone(s).

I'd love for the login feature to work like google voice android app, which 
allows me to select from the accounts on the phone, or provide my own login 
credentials.

I have the same desire as KG6EPF. And I also want my wife to send to my phone. 
Sending links and text onto our own phones is not much useful.
Thanks a ton

I would also like to have multiple extension instances that can be tied to 
different google accounts.

it seems that a "drop down style" account manager function is the best solution 
for multiple gmail accounts that would be linked to different phones.

would this require the originator to know the login details for the other 
account that the phone is linked to?

It may not have to be displayed,   I think it would be streamlined if all log 
out/log in directives were handled locally in the addon instead of logging into 
gmail.  Think gmail addon for firefox log in on multiple accounts or able to 
toggle between. Password could be encrypted.

Issue 200 has been merged into this issue.

Support for multiple phones/devices registered to same account is in on the 
server side, currently all will receive the page until UI is added to the 
browser extensions.

On support for multiple google accounts for a single phone: we could probably 
do it on android side by changing the account selection to allow multiple 
accounts, but I'm not sure it's the right solution. We should rather fix the 
extension to not use cookies - so extension can use a different account than 
what is logged in. Is there any other reason to allow multiple accounts for one 
phone ?

@costin - yes there is.  I have my own domain, and have 3 different Google 
accoutns set up on my phone, including that GAFYD account.  With Google 
supporting multiple logins for a few of their services (and with GAFYD soon to 
come, from what I have seen on the grapevine) it would be nice for me to be 
able to share info from respective accounts to the same account - so, if I am 
out on a business call, then to use my GAFYD account to send and receive info 
through that account only, as opposed ot having to change my account either on 
the phone or on my PC to retrieve relevant account info....

Agreed. I'm often running 3 profiles in 3 instances of my browser (work, 
personal, project). I'd like to be able to click "Chrome to phone" in all 3 
browsers but I can only click it in the personal one.

Not sure it is the right bug, but my phone is registered with two accounts (but 
the chrome to phone app can only use one), and I'm logged-in with multiple 
accounts on my browser.

My problem is that the primary account in my browser needs to match the account 
from the phone. If they differ I have to launch a different browser, and login 
with the "right" account first, it's a pain.

Yes, this would be a fantastic enhancement. Thank you in anticipation.

I would love to have the ability to register my phone to multiple accounts as I 
have a work account and a home account, having to switch between them is a 
chore.
Either that, or a tasker plugin to allow me to change the account my phone is 
associated with based on my tasker profiles.

I am using this great app to send things I want to watch to my Google TV, and 
it works great.  However, it would be great if more than one account could send 
info to the same devise.  This way, a team of people could cue up urls to watch 
on GTV.  Currently not possible, I gather.

This is a great app, but it is more useful if you can add additional phone 
numbers.  Many times a family member will call and need directions or 
information while out or on the road and it would be great to use this app to 
send them that information.

+1 for being able to send to the same phone from my Google Apps account as well 
as my personal Google account!

I would think that support for multiple accounts connected to single device is 
more important than single account to multiple devices.  I want a complete 
isolation between desktops I control (at home) and the ones I don't (at work).  
This means multiple google accounts.  But it would be nice to save all the 
links in one place both from work and from home.  I don't want these 2 accounts 
to be linked (again complete isolation so that my work desktops could not even 
theoretically access my home account).
