It would be great for the app to have a "profile" screen similar to Netflix/D+/Prime Video. For a setup which multiple users use, separate viewing progresses are much needed.

other platforms have this feature, not sure why it's being overlooked here but been waiting on this for awhile to fully move over to Jellyfin.

It's not being overlooked, but it's actually a much more complicated feature that requires many changes in jellyfin-web, and then some on the server side too.

What are those changes? I was trying to do some research yesterday here https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-web/issues/5074

But I haven't found any documentation on how the data flow occurs.

I switched from the android tv client to the webos client, and i really miss the switch profile option. Only way to do this now is setting the profiles to show up on log in page...

Would love to see a profile switcher of logged in users here aswell.

I'd like to bump this feature request as it's very important to the general usability of the app. Not being able to easily switch profiles is the reason why most of my family don't want to use Jellyfin.

Does that mean that this option exists on Android TV?

This wouldn't quite fit this comment.
