We use devices in business environment and share device across multiple (3~4) users in their shifts. Each user has its own user account created on the device. Each profile has its own Synching app installed on their own user profile. If one of the users have Synching on or left running in their profiles, the others are unable to start Synching.

Device: Pixel 2 XL Android 14 LineageOS 21

This is already supported if you adjust the GUI listen address in the app settings. For example, by default it is set to 8384, but you can change that to 8385, 8386, etc. for the other profiles. You also need to do a few other port-related tweaks inside the Advanced Configuration in the Web GUI once you've got it running (see https://forum.syncthing.net/t/two-users-on-the-same-machine/18218/2).
