Multiple Streaming / Family Accounts and Roon Profiles (Tidal, Qobuz, ...)

After only recently discovering this absent feature I’m still optimistic that this will someday happen. I hope that it becomes a reality soon.

Yes please, that would be a much appreciated feature!

Christmas is coming. Buy a second Roon lifetime subscription for the family to use. The gift that keeps on giving. :christmas_tree:

Question: Would that be a gift to the family, or a gift to yourself to stop your family polluting your Roon history and playlists?

Yes (10 char)

@Jim_F ,

That’s not ideal Jim, although I hate to admit it what you’re saying makes perfect sense.

I look for solutions to problems. I have three lifetime subscriptions for various reasons.

I’ve just completed my first year with Roon and it’s significantly transformed my listening experience with my 12,000+ FLAC album library. However, the inability to use my Qobuz Family account with the Roon server is a major drawback. This is a significant factor preventing me from considering a lifetime Roon subscription.

I’m curious if anyone has reached out to Tidal or Qobuz to inquire about modifying their family accounts for Roon compatibility. I plan to do so and will share Qobuz’s response.

In the meantime, Roon, please consider addressing this limitation.

Just an update. After changing my login/password on Qobuz (I previously logged in via my Google account), I am now able to successfully run Qobuz within Roon today. I’m unsure if this was a result of the login/password change, an update within Roon, or a change on Qobuz’s end. Give it a shot folks, and keep us posted.

I just added my vote! We are also considering the tidal family plan since one account for all family members is not the thing you want :slight_smile: hope it can be implemented in the near future!

kind regards

I also vote for ability to have a unique set of streams per profile!

I too am adding my voice (and vote) to this. As current member the inability to associate each Roon profile with their own Tidal account is becoming a dealbreaker for me.

I also want to add my vote to the idea of Tidal family account integration in Roon. I also have a family account within our 4 person family but in Roon eeverybody uses my account.

Also I vote for Roon to enable this feature.

This is a really important feature. A lot of the other stuff about smart this and that are pointless unless subscribers can’t use the software in a way that works for them…

This needs to be added please - voted.

That’s brave! I couldn’t cope with the rubbish they add to my library :grin:

In all seriousness though, Roon are missing out on hooking my near-adult children, who are seriously into music (and I have given them the hifi bug), but they do not use Roon because I discourage it. Similarly, I only recommend Roon to my friends with the reservation that they cannot use it for their household. A shame, really.

Not having this feature is a major reason I don’t think I’ll be subscribing to Roon. What good are separate profiles if we’re sharing the same Tidal account? My wife has tons of playlists and a whole different catalogue of music in her Tidal account. Trying to combine them would just lead to a mess.

Please make this a priority feature and have external libraries tied to profiles.

I agree. Did you both vote with the button at the top?

Indeed, I was also looking into Roon primarily to use with Qobuz, but this is a dealbreaker as my wife needs to b be able to use it with her Qobuz profile simultaneously.
So no Roon for us.

And I also voted, but it feels quite redundant as this topic is from 2017? So after 7 (!) years, nothing.
