In Mixpanel, the user profile has a Devices array that lists device IDs, languages, and device types. Is this array automatically maintained by Mixpanel, and if a user switches to a new device, will the old and new devices both remain visible in the profile?

I'm sorry, but the knowledge sources provided do not contain explicit information about a "Devices array" in Mixpanel user profiles that lists device IDs, languages, and device types, nor do they specify whether such an array is automatically maintained or how it behaves when a user switches devices.The documentation does explain that Mixpanel can merge multiple device IDs into a single user profile using identity management, and that user profiles are joined to events via the distinct_id. However, it does not mention an automatically maintained array of devices within the user profile or how device history is displayed in the profile UI. The default properties collected by Mixpanel include device and OS information, but there is no mention of an aggregated device list per user profile in the sources provided Default Properties.If you need details about the "Devices array" specifically, I recommend consulting Mixpanel's official documentation or support for clarification.

Does Mixpanel track which devices a user is logged in on?
