User-Friendly Interface:

Although DeviceSwitch requires hardware ID input, the app offers a simple interface for activating and deactivating devices. Casual users should exercise caution to avoid accidental deactivation of critical components.

We tested DeviceSwitch with multiple hardware IDs but found that only the first one was recognized. Despite this limitation, DeviceSwitch remains a valuable tool for managing hardware devices efficiently.
