Hi! (me again).  
I noticed I very seldom see the “View as anyone” to simulate anonymous user and test visibility and contextual contents.  
So I had to create a user with no Firstname nor Lastname and a hard code email “simulation anonyme”. And test “includes/does not include” as conditions wherever I need it (like Custom Actions).  
But, this does never trigger the Sign in page, which I have to simulate by opening the set up options ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/d/3/d3e9814cc2f616451dbb4d750306160592ddbf65.png)  
(which is not ideal, especially when recording video: need to crop less on the left hand side to show the Sign in screen, hence I cannot fit the video to be mobile full screen 🤦‍♀️).  
So is there something to do to see this option “view as anyone” all the time ? Or is it very random?  
Thks

If you uncheck (click) the currently checked profile/email, it will go into ‘Viewing as anyone’ mode.

And my next videos will be perfectly cropped.  
And my condition code will be much easier too.
