# Switch between Host and Entertainer views
Change your working view while keeping the same account, bookings and profile.

In the navigation rail, choose **Use as entertainer** or **Use as a host** below
the current view label. On mobile, open the navigation menu first. The action changes your working view;
your account, membership, plan, profile and booking history stay the same.

The Bookings list shows this account's buyer-side work in Host view and its
entertainer-side work in Entertainer view. Switch back to see bookings from the
other side. Your access to a booking does not change when you switch views.
Private hosts without a listing see only entertainer discovery, Bookings and
Notifications in the navigation rail.
Notifications is the last navigation item. The **Edit profile** link beside the
view label opens personal settings for a private host or the listing editor for
a Host with a place or an Entertainer. An Entertainer with an act can open
**My artist profile** from the account menu to preview it before editing.

Host view helps you find entertainers and manage booking work. Entertainer view
shows your existing act and eligible places to perform. If you do not have an
act, the workspace explains the available setup path. An account with a place
profile does not gain a second listing by switching views.

Switching opens the other side's marketplace. If your account has no entertainer
profile, the venue marketplace shows the available setup path before you can
browse places. Account and business settings stay in the account menu. Event
tools appear in navigation only when the active view has its own listing and
the account has access to those tools.

Private request drafts stay in this browser tab, scoped to your login, account
and selected entertainer. Switching views does not change their booking party
or send them. Sign-out removes preparation drafts.

If **Send request** is available for your account, you may send a reviewed
private request from buyer setup. Otherwise it stays an unsent draft. Existing
booking rules, artist fees and separate marketplace fees still apply.
