馃攼 One account, one device: your profile is better protected
From today a LexiSmash account can be used on only one device at a time: if someone signs in with your account from another computer or phone, the previous session closes immediately and you notice it.
Your LexiSmash account holds a lot: level and experience, achievements, streak, karma, friends, messages, profile pictures and, for those who have it, Premium. That鈥檚 why from today there鈥檚 a new rule: an account can be used on only one device at a time.
What changes
When you sign in with your account on another device, for example on your home computer after playing on your phone, the session on the previous device closes immediately, in real time. A message there explains what happened and the page goes back to Guest mode. To carry on with that device, just press Sign in again: then it鈥檚 the other device that gets signed out.
Tabs in the same browser count as a single session, so you can keep one tab open as Master and another as a player without them getting in each other鈥檚 way. If you play as a Guest, without an account, nothing changes for you.
Why it鈥檚 safer
If someone managed to sign in with your account, you would notice straight away: your device would be signed out. Signing in again would be enough to close their session. The game server also rejects every request from a session that has been replaced, so from there nobody can make purchases, redeem codes, send messages or change the profile any more.
A practical tip
If you see the sign-out message without having signed in somewhere else yourself, sign in again straight away and check the Google or GitHub account you use to log in, perhaps changing its password. You鈥檒l find all the details in the game manual, in the section about your account.
