Your new app will appear in your setup. You can just as easily delete an app by right-clicking on it and selecting "Remove App". 

Warning: Changing your template will consolidate all currently installed apps into the Primary App Section. If you had apps in mutiple bars, you will need to re-place them using the Builder

How to add multiple profiles/accounts for the same app

Have multiple profiles or accounts for the same app? Simply add multiple instances of the app and log in with the respective account credentials! We recommend giving each a different color and name to help differentiate them in your sidebar. If you want to see the account details, click on the sidebar and then hover the mouse over the accounts. It will show the account names and details for you.
