Switching between 2 cameras on Canon Camera Connect

I have 2 cameras, an R5 and an R8 which I want to connect to my phone. They are both registered with Canon Connect, but I cannot figure out how to switch between them. I can only use the most recently registered, my R5.

If you are attempting to connect to more than one device at the same time, then that mode of operation is not supported. To support that mode of operation would require separate electronics for each connected device. The cameras do not have it. I doubt if your phone has it, either.

I figured it out right after I asked. Just push the image of the camera aside to get the other. All I am doing is downloading from them individually, not simultaneously.
