## FAQs

**Can one user log in on multiple devices at the same time?**

> No. A Leegality account can only be actively signed in on **one device at a time**. If you try to log in on a second device while you're already signed in elsewhere, you'll see a prompt with two choices:
>         - **Keep the existing session** — cancels the new login attempt; your original device stays signed in.
>         - **Continue here** — automatically logs you out of the other device and signs you in on the current one.
> 
>         You can't have both sessions active simultaneously.

**Will my session expire if I'm inactive?**

> Yes. If your dashboard tab is inactive for **15 minutes**, your session ends automatically and you'll need to sign in again.
