Running multiple Clash Royale accounts on the same device is completely possible, and Supercell's own built-in feature — Supercell ID — makes it the safest and easiest way to do it. Whether you want a second account to practice, push trophies on a fresh start, or simply let a family member play without touching your main village, this guide walks you through every method step by step.
What you need before you start
You do not need any special tools to run multiple Clash Royale accounts if you use Supercell ID — just your existing device and an email address for each account. If you want to play two accounts at the same time, you will also need either a second device or an emulator or app-cloning app for Android. Keep the following in mind:
- Each account must be linked to its own Supercell ID email so your progress is protected.
- Supercell ID is free and built into Clash Royale — no download required.
- App cloning and emulators are for simultaneous play; Supercell ID handles switching on a single copy of the app.
How to run multiple Clash Royale accounts
-
Step 1: Understand the two main approaches
Before diving in, choose the method that fits your situation. Supercell ID is the recommended route: it saves each account to the cloud and lets you switch between them inside the game in about thirty seconds without losing any data. The device/store account route — using a second Google Play or Apple Game Center login, a second physical device, or an Android app cloner — is better if you want to play both accounts simultaneously without switching back and forth.
Supercell ID is ideal for switching; a second device or emulator is best if you want to play both at once. -
Step 2: Link your main account to Supercell ID
Open Clash Royale and tap the gear icon to open Settings. Select Supercell ID and tap Register. Enter an email address and confirm the verification code that Supercell sends to that address. Once registered, your account is securely saved to the cloud. Use a unique email per account — mixing them up will cause login conflicts later. This step is critical: never create a second account until your first one is safely backed up.
Tap Settings, open Supercell ID, and register your main account with an email address before doing anything else. -
Step 3: Log out and create your second account
With your main account safely saved, go back to Settings and tap Supercell ID again, then choose Log Out. Clash Royale will reset to a fresh guest account — this is not the same as deleting anything; your main account is still stored in the cloud under its Supercell ID. Play through the opening tutorial on the new guest account, then immediately return to Settings and register this new account to a different email address as its own Supercell ID. Now you have two independent accounts, each with their own email and cloud save.
Log out of Supercell ID to generate a fresh guest account, then register it to a second email before you start playing seriously. -
Step 4: Switch between accounts inside the game
To switch back to your main account (or to any other saved account), open Settings and tap Supercell ID. You will see a Switch Account option that shows all the Supercell IDs you have previously logged in to on this device. Tap the account you want, confirm, and the game reloads with that account's data in around fifteen seconds. There is no limit to the number of accounts you can store — you just need a separate Supercell ID email for each one.
The Switch Account list shows every Supercell ID you have used on this device, making it easy to hop between accounts. -
Step 5: Play two accounts simultaneously (optional)
If switching is not enough and you want to farm, donate, or battle on both accounts at the same moment, you have two practical options. On Android, many manufacturers include a built-in "Dual Space", "Clone App", or "Parallel Apps" feature in the phone's settings that lets you run a second independent copy of Clash Royale side by side. Alternatively, you can use a third-party app such as Parallel Space (available on the Google Play Store) or run the game inside an Android emulator on a PC. On iPhone and iPad, the App Store does not allow duplicate apps, so the simplest option there is to use a second physical iOS device. Whichever method you choose, make sure each copy of the game is signed into its own Supercell ID so both accounts remain fully protected.
An Android emulator or a built-in Dual Space feature lets you run two accounts at the same time; always link each to its own Supercell ID.
Tips and best practices
- Use unique emails. Each Supercell ID must use a distinct email address. Free email providers such as Gmail or Outlook work fine — just make a label or note of which email maps to which account.
- Switch before major updates. When Supercell releases a major update it is a good idea to log into each account once so that all of them download the patch before the old version becomes incompatible.
- Emulators on PC. BlueStacks and LDPlayer are two widely used Android emulators that run Clash Royale well on Windows. You can open multiple emulator instances to run more than two accounts at once.
- Stay fair play compliant. Using multiple accounts for in-game advantage (such as gifting yourself resources through Clan trades in an exploitative way) may violate Supercell's terms of service. Use your accounts to play normally.
Troubleshooting
My second account disappeared after logging out
If you did not register your second account to a Supercell ID before logging out, it may have been overwritten. Always register each new account to its own email the moment you create it. If the account is truly lost, contact Supercell Support with as many account details as you can recall.
The Switch Account option is not showing up
The Switch Account option only appears if you have previously logged in to more than one Supercell ID on the same device. Log into your second account at least once, then log back into your first, and the switcher list will populate.
The cloned app keeps closing or failing to load
Some clone or Dual Space environments restrict network access. Make sure the cloned Clash Royale has permission to access the internet in your phone's app permissions settings. Restarting the clone environment after granting permissions usually fixes this.
Frequently asked questions
Can you have two Clash Royale accounts on the same phone?
Yes. The cleanest way is to create two Supercell IDs and switch between them inside the game's settings. On Android you can also run two simultaneous copies using your device's built-in Dual Space or Clone App feature, or with a third-party app cloner.
Does creating a second account violate Clash Royale's terms of service?
No. Supercell officially supports multiple accounts per player through the Supercell ID system. The only restriction is that you must not use extra accounts to cheat or manipulate game systems in ways that harm other players.
Will switching accounts on Supercell ID delete my progress?
No. Switching accounts only changes which account is loaded on your device — both accounts remain safe in the cloud under their respective Supercell IDs. Your trophies, cards, gold, and gems are all preserved.
Can I run multiple Clash Royale accounts on iPhone?
Yes, by using the Supercell ID switcher (which works the same on iOS as Android) or by using two separate iPhones or iPads. Apple's App Store does not allow duplicate app installs, so simultaneous play on a single iPhone is not natively supported.
Is there a limit to how many Clash Royale accounts I can have?
Supercell does not publish a hard cap, and in practice players have reported managing five or more accounts through Supercell ID without issue. Each account needs its own email address, so the practical limit is however many email addresses you are willing to manage.
Final thoughts
Running multiple Clash Royale accounts is straightforward once you understand that Supercell ID is the hub that keeps everything safe. Register your main account first, then log out to create and register each new account to its own email. After that, switching takes less than a minute and neither account is ever at risk. If you need to play both accounts at the same moment, an Android emulator or the Dual Space feature on most modern Android phones gives you exactly that. Keep every account linked to a Supercell ID and you will never lose progress.
