SINGLE-INSTANCE MULTI-USER SUPPORT FOR VEHICLE OPERATING SYSTEMS

A computing device comprising a memory and one or more processors may be configured to implement various aspects of the techniques. The memory may store an instance of a vehicle operating system, where the instance of the vehicle operating system facilitates concurrent access by multiple user profiles. Tire one or more processors may execute the instance of the vehicle operating system, which is configured to authorize the multiple user profiles to interface with the instance of the vehicle operating system; and present multiple user interfaces across multiple displays communicatively coupled to the vehicle head unit, each of the multiple user interfaces associated with one or more of the multiple user profiles. The multiple user interfaces may interface with multiple users associated with the multiple user profiles to enable the multiple users to interface with the instance of the vehicle operating system and control functionality associated with the vehicle head unit.
