Can you have multiple Facebook accounts on your iPad? If so, how do you add an account?

Game Apps from Facebook default to my account information and my wife cannot play Bejeweled under her Facebook login from my iPad

iPad 2, iOS 6.1.2

Sorry, i thought you meant that you were logging into the game through the FB app.


Apps such as iSwifter should work for this - one of the reasons for their popularity is accessing Flash games on the ipad. I've used similar apps at school to get my students onto Java/Flash math websites, with general (but not perfect) success. These apps are proxy servers - you're not going directly to the site in question, but going to them through a server. They can suffer from the occasional lag or drop, as well as the fact that these sites were designed for the precise single tough of the mouse pointer rather than a stubby finger. If you don't expect perfection, they should be fine.

You have two different issues here. As GG said, you can log in and out of your accounts on either the Facebook app or a Facebook webpage. You can not log into both at the same time, unless (as GG suggested) you do the app for one profile and website for another.


However, you won't be able to play Bejeweled through the website because it is a flash game and the iPad does not support Flash. There is an app for it that you can download and play - if that's the same Bejeweled game.

Apple mobile devices are not configured for mulitple users, however some things can be shared. You will need to log out of facebook and then in with other account. This however, will probably lead to the loss of other info if you are syncing contacts or other info from facebook.


You can try logging into facebook directly from the web via safari, instead of the ipad app. That may be a work-around.
