workspace share is a backup for use by that account only.
Workspaces cannot be shared with other members or other accounts.

You can install multiple instances of the ToS app (obviously in separate directories)
And then open the apps with your different sign-ins.
And then open the studies and copy the ones that you need on the other account.

ONLY copy the studies needed for your current chart setup.
The app has no indexing for your custom studies located on its servers. Therefore, the more that you have in your library, the slower your app will run.

You can back up any other unused custom studies that you want to keep:

I have one account with thousands of custom studies. It got to the point where I could make a pot of coffee and drink it before charts would load. It can no longer be used with the app.

I try to remember to keep my other accounts lean and mean, but one recently got up to over 250 custom studies and efficiency had degraded. Spent the weekend backing up and cleaning out my studies.

I am back down to less than 2 dozen.
Keeping your custom studies, scans, and watchlists down to a minimal amount is the single best method to keep the ToS app running efficiently.
