Can we use different emails for each devices ?

I have to manage my family devices from PC.
I couldn't use the same login for every devices.

I tried to install TeamViewer Host on my son's cellphone with new email and password. When I connect from My PC (my email), it shown "Login cancel" and freeze at "Awaiting authentication".

QuickSupport work very well on my's son cellphone. But need to run and approve every time.

I understand the work flow now.
These are the concept designs of TeamViewer:

Every email account has it's own group.
We couldn't manage the other group unless we share group together.
QuickSupport don't have a group. Everyone can add remote computer and connect to it.
If you try to connect the device on the other group without sharing, there is no error display what is wrong. And it always show "password is wrong".

Example to use different emails for each devices:

On son cellphone, assign login with son email account.
On TeamViewer.com webpage, login with son email account.
On TeamViewer.com webpage, add contact with dad email. There is no confirmation on screen that dad need to accept and verify. Email usually arrives late so wait for 5 minutes.
On dad PC, check email and accept new contact request from son account.
On TeamViewer.com webpage, share group with dad contact. There is no confirmation on screen that dad need to accept and verify. Email usually arrives late so wait for 5 minutes.
On dad PC, check email and accept new group shared from son account.
On TeamViewer.com webpage, now son can delete dad contact to avoid security leak.

Hi @natong ,

Thank you for your post.

In order to do the unattended access to Android, the device must be assigned to your account (this is done inside the host app) and then selected from your contacts list on your PC to connect to the Android.

Hope this will be helpful.

All the best,
Yuri
