Enabling Multi-User Functionality in AAOS 15 on i.MX8 QuadMax with Multi-Display Setup

Hello Team,

We are using Android Automotive OS (AAOS) 15 on the i.MX8 QuadMax platform.

Our current hardware setup includes three displays:

1. Main Central Display (Driver/Center Display)
2. Passenger Display
3. Instrument Cluster Display

We would like to enable and validate Android multi-user functionality on this platform, including support for user switching, guest users, and user-specific applications/settings.

Could you please provide guidance on the following:

• What configurations are required to enable multi-user support in AAOS 15 on i.MX8QM?
• Are there any BSP-specific changes needed from the NXP side?
• Which framework overlays, feature flags, or system properties must be enabled?

Any guidance or recommended steps would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi @harshi03 

Please refer to the official Android Automotive documentation:

• Android Automotive multi-user support
• Foreground and background user system handling

For concurrent users on multiple displays, please refer to the Android Automotive multi-display and occupant-zone architecture:

• Android Automotive 15 features
• Multi-Display Communications API

Best Regards,
Zhiming
