Add, Rename, and Switch Between Computers

Use the computer selector to switch machines or choose Add new machine. Each computer has its own environment and subscription.

Add a computer

1. Open the computer selector in the app.
2. Choose Add new machine.
3. Select a plan and available location.
4. Review and complete checkout.
5. Wait for the new computer to finish setup.

Adding a computer creates a separate paid environment. It does not copy the first computer’s repositories, agent logins, or shared memory.

Rename a computer

1. Select the computer you want to rename.
2. Open Settings → Machine name.
3. Enter a recognizable name, such as “Client project”.
4. Select Save.
5. Wait for Machine name saved.

The display name can be up to 80 characters. Renaming it does not change its technical identity, SSH hostname, plan, or stored files.

Switch between computers

Choose the intended computer from the selector before opening Terminal, Files, Metrics, Billing, or Settings. Those pages operate on the selected machine.

For operations such as restore, reset, or subscription cancellation, check the name and technical identity carefully. A friendly name helps you navigate but is not a backup or a transfer mechanism.

If you want to move a project, transfer its files and configuration explicitly, then verify the new copy before retiring the old computer.
