AccountSwitcher is a homebrew application that allows you to swap PSN accounts on a single SD card. Useful if you have content from multiple accounts on your card, as you can switch seamlessly between those.

Note: Please keep a backup of your profiles somewhere safe, just in case.

User guide

To add current account, open the app, and dump your current profile (second option).

To add other account:

  • First unslave SD card (third option, this will allow you to keep your SD intact).
  • Restore the device (Format -> Restore This System).
  • When asked if you want to deactivate, choose "No".
  • When asked if you want to format the card, choose "No".
  • Log in with your new credentials.
  • Activate the Vita.
    • From Henkaku Release 3 onwards, PSN spoofing is included.
    • Activate the device normally from Settings or just by downloading anything from store. After activation, reboot the system.
  • Open the app and dump your new profile (second option).

To load an account, select "Load Account". Choose a profile, then reboot the system.

Profiles are stored on ux0:/data/AccountSwitcher.

Changelog

v2.4

  • Removed ZombieWizzard's vita-activator option since it's not working correctly and i don't have the time check why. Use henkaku's psn spoofing for now.
  • Minor bugfixes and text fixes.
  • Better method to persist offline henkaku when switching accounts.
  • Trial accounts are now supported.
  • Added more stuff to the cleanup script.

v2.3

  • Removed current account check (it was pointless to begin with, there are situations when you need to reload such as deactivating).
  • Added LiveArea.

v2.2

  • Trophies glitch fixed (Error NP-6174-8) (Remember to sync your trophies before switching if you dont want to lose them).
