This will bring up the character wheel displaying the three main protagonists: Michael, Franklin, and Trevor.
Use the right stick or directional buttons to highlight the character you want to switch to, then release the switch button to complete the transition.
The game will then cut to that character's location, allowing you to continue gameplay from their perspective. Character switching is available during free roam but is restricted during certain missions.

Player Information (Top-Right Corner):
In the top-right corner of the screen, you’ll find important details about your character, including their portrait, the current in-game time, and your available cash. This allows you to easily keep track of which character you're playing, how much money you have, and the time within the game world.
