But you can look at two different folders in Gmail or two different products on Amazon, which is what the OP sounds like they’re wanting to do.

If they actually want to log in to two different "accounts" at once, create a meta account that gives them access to both sets of data. It sounds like the access requirements for your app are changing, so change the design of your app to cope.
