We love Callan! The Browser Company is shining star, I uninstalled Chrome 48 hours after downloading Arc.
Best presenter ever. Super clear! 👏
I got to know this feature and it made me change my default browser to arc. And then, as I got used to it, I absolutely fell in love with this browser.
This video appeared in my timeline just when I needed it. I was wondering how I could have different favorites in different workspaces, you explained the answer. Thanks.
Great tutorial Callan! love your clear examples and love how you used an Easel at the end
Thanks for the overview. It is very helpful and crystal clear.
Thank you. I was reading about it on the Arc tweet and wondered how to do it 👍
Finally spaces makes sense to me!
Excellent Video! Thanks a lot!
Finally another browser that has a similar feature to Firefox's containers, surprising how not very talked about it is the usefulness of being able to separate logins and histories, without having to also manage different sets of settings and extensions (and is honestly the main reason I stick to it, besides maybe customization)
Certainly will consider this if it's ever on Linux
I've been trying to use Arc as my daily drive and while I understand its approach to organization, I feel a lot of friction. I have a default space but 4 different profiles. My original way of thinking about this is the same way a browser like Chrome works: each tab (pinned, favorites, regular) belong to a different profile. The friction with Arc is that switching between profiles only affect the favorite tabs, every other tabs persist. This is problematic because even though I'm now logged into applications with my work email in my work profile, the tabs/applications from my personal profile still persists. I won't be able to access them anyway, but it causes a lot of clutter and disorganization (which defeats the purpose) because now I can't tell what tab really belong to what profile.
I think the basic reason for this is that Profiles are a subset of Spaces, when it should be the other way round? Or maybe I don't just get it and the friction and disorganization is by design?
Exactly, in this explanatory video I didn't know which space belonged to which profile, also having everything together should be an option, and also what would make sense that when you change profiles (an option that I don't see in the video) the profile spaces for default is hidden because it does not belong to that profile. This should be a selectable option for the user.
I would like to be able to select first a profile and then the related spaces. Thus, t would also reduce the number of spaces as you see only the actual spaces for each profile.
@@heiseconsulting @Lenin Zapata did they change this in the past 4 months? Because I started last week and it actually moves tabs for each of the profiles I have set up. Changing the colors each space also helps a bunch on knowing where you are, but my tabs and favorites are unique to each of the profiles and spaces.
Heise, I'm not sure I understood what you meant, but you can actually select the profile first. Right on the side of the name for each space you have a =) face where you can click and change the profile, or by right-clicking.
Also, I came to this video to look for an answer on where to delete profiles. I created a personal one, while all my setup was already on one called Default. I created one for work. It doesn't cover in this video, but I found it while messing around: if you click on Arc>Settings>General you can see the Profile names, and on the very bottom of the settings window it let's you rename or delete a profile. So I renamed Default as Personal and have a different one for Work.
Hopefully I could help. I've been LOVING Arc so much, it changed the way I use the internet and has helped me tremendously to better organize things.
joining Arc is my dream
Wow, this is Amazing!
I have just downloaded for the Windows, and it lacks many many "cool" things icluding gestures, show archives command and what not. Even can't apply the texture in the theme in windows! Arc is not the same if it doesn't have these features.
Goodness this is so nice!!
Hey ! I've noticed that the top bookmarks (with the big icons) are changing depending on the space, but on my version of Arc it doesn't, does anybody know if it is possible to replicate the same behavior ? Or was it like that before, and now it's the same favorites for all spaces ?
Really need a way to choose which profile is the default and gets to be synced. I want to use Arc for personal browsing and for work. But having started out using it for work only, I can't find any way to move all my cookies, passwords, etc. into a work profile in order to repurpose the default one. Any help would be appreciated!
Awesome, can’t wait to get my invite, how long is the waiting list (I know, I’m very impatient
😊)
I didn't know something like profiles existed. I really got frustrated with the account logins getting conflicted with other spaces. Now finally got the solution.
My suggestion is most people use spaces to have different profiles. So, it's better you create a new profile with every new space by default implicitly. If not at least educate the users on profiles and give option to create them right when they create a space
Experienced the same
Awesome! If I create a new profile, how can I carry over the extensions I have already installed without having to install them all over again?
Is there any way to have different pins per space? Currently, all the same pins are in all the spaces
Wait, I don't have any profile section in my general settings, as shown in 7:04. Why?
Hi, I don't know if it's a good place to share feedback, but it's kinda super annoying when managing spaces that everytime I move a single tab from a space to another, the tab open and we leave the spaces manager.
Waiting for all these features to be available in Windows OS...
Why windows version don't have as many features as Mac version
Honestly this just looks like a mass of confusion. Glad you are happy.
Awesome! When an iPad native version?
awesome. when is Arc for iPhone and iPad coming?
Need an option to make a space belong to a profile, some spaces only make sense under certain profile. Also need a way to easily identify which profile I'm on and shortcut to switch between profiles.
Is it possible to create a new profile and import everything, including bookmarks, history, passwords, etc. from another Chrome profile?
And if it's possible, what is the best way for doing that?
very nice
Hi! Recently I've installed Arc on my new laptop but I got only 1 profile that synchronized of 3 created on my old laptop. Its strange cause I've got 3 spaces that have all the bookmarks from my profiles but the favourites have lost too. I see only favourites from the profile that could transfer and its pinned for all spaces.
I wrote the letter to the Arc team too and waiting for the answer.
Nice Video, but I do not understand, how I could move the document between my personal and my business profile!?
The shown document (around 5:20) seems to sit inside the personal account of Google Docs. It was previously mentioned, how great it is to have the personal, and the business Google Accounts separated between those two profiles within arc.
If I move the Tab with the document, my understanding so far is, that I do not move the document from my private Google Account into my Business Google Account, but instead move my private Google Account into the Business Profile instead, which was earlier said is great to have this separated across the Profiles within Arc.
Do I miss something important, or was it just a bad example?
Can I have two arc browser app opened with 2 different profiles? Because that's what I did with Edge, one for work and one for personal.
Is Arc for Mac more advanced than in Windows version? cause I couldn't find the preferences as you showed
Is it possible to share passwords between the profiles? I want to use one single password manager; it's already not possible to use Keychain, at least that way there'll be internal consistency.
is there a way to sync the extensions from the deffault ones?
separate theme colors for different profiles?
There is a way to use different google email (profiles) in to arc?
Tell me please, how I can switch between spaces and have the tabs switch as well. Right now, if I switch spaces with the key combination control + 1,2,3..., the active tab does not change. This is a bit confusing.
it doesn’t work like that, you need to actively choose the tab to view in the new soace
@@quinn.mcginley That's problematic for me. I've been struggling with that.
Is there any way to remove a profile?
Can I force certain sites only open in a certain profile?
I still don't fully understand the difference between Spaces vs Profiles-- like yes profiles is for work vs personal email log ins etc...but i thought spaces was that? so should we consider Spaces to be like the different profiles on chrome?
How do you delete the default profile? It's greyed out for me.
But how to delete or rename certain profile ?
Still dont understand the differences between spaces and profiles. they seem to have the same function for me
how to change icons in spaces in windows (beta)
I missed how to switch between profiles.
A fact that I still don't understand today …
Why doesn't Arc support the standard notes app on macOS? Especially since Arc was first released on the Mac.
Can someone explain this to me?
Because they are building a closed, proprietary environment. The browser is closed source and everything requires an Arc account. That way they can force you to adopt more and more of their future products as they release them.
Not even Microsoft or Apple are this restrictive about their ecosystem. The Browser Company is a predatory and anti-consumer enterprise if there ever was one. Not all that surprising if you look into who are the investors behind it.
Is it correct that extensions have to be reinstalled for each Space?
Different spaces in the same profile share extensions. You need to reinstall if it's for different profiles
how to delete folders and favorites?
You're saying you can move None profiles to your space, but if you uncheck all of them, create button ill be inactive. Soo... How to do it?
?
the feature that sold me is that you can add texture to the background hahaha. sooo prettyyyy... joined the waitlist for windows version.
I miss being able to export from Arc to another browser. I changed the computer and I can't even get my own history.
How to disable automatic conversion of HTTP to HTTPS.
This refers to a different server.
"Profiles are not synched between computers" -> thats already a showstopper for me
how do her top favorite icons change based on space?
Different profiles
Am waiting for the windows release
Habeis olvidado una simple y sencilla cosita, agregar una función o programa para personas ciegas o baja visión, y colocar el tablero en español por defecto, espero , renegáis en cuenta la "inclusión social" Nota: video en español
the profiles and spaces are pretty confusing...
Maybe, just maybe, a browser shouldn't be this complicated?
I just want to browse the web and possible switch my profile , which dsnt work currently.
You mentioned the same concept about Profiles 3 times. Why repeat it again and again
The audio in this video is too quiet. I can barely hear you speak.
You realize after using it that spaces aren't really separate. Booooo for advertising and not delivering 😑
great explanation, but when you see she uses pronouns 💀
You know if you need to make a 12 minute video to tell users how to use spaces and profiles you may have a ui design issue. No other browser needs to do this. I wanted to try and love this browser but your UI is so cumbersome i don't know if i can. I have multiple google accounts (work and personal) and its unclear how those are used with your browser. -- ie i had to watch this video. With all other browsers i say create a new profile (for-front) it asks if i want to sign in to an account and bam im done. Your browser -- Create a new space, find the add profile button - sub menu or settings, and then open a login screen on my own to log into my account.. Wait where's my bookmarks? extensions? passwords?? OOOOHHH they aren't synced so i need to go between Arc and my old browser because nothing is sync'd...
Again love the idea but you are over complicating things just to be different. Heres a few suggestions.. 1 - sync my data and settings. 2- make it easier to see what is open, i have hundreds of book marks. 3 - make profiles different windows or the option to be different windows. You are muddling the line between profiles and spaces. I have spaces that would exist in under both profiles (work and personal) like coding, research, etc. You want to re-introduce the internet but other browsers have been around for years and refined their designs to fit user needs; use what they learned.
i don’t think their browser is difficult to use. Also, you want innovation but expect it to be intuitive and similar to what already existed?
