Now that you say that I feel like cell phones now need to have a "guest mode" web browser, maps and phone, but everything else walled off

- bronco21016 10y agoMy biggest concern if I let someone borrow my phone in a busy public space is that they will run off with it. Perhaps the guest mode should primarily be a means of preventing a thief from doing anything meaningful with a stolen phone. It should probably restrict the 'guest' to only using the phone mode and prevent the phone from being placed into airplane mode so that if it is stolen it can more likely be tracked and recovered.
- thenaterhood 10y agoIf you run Android, that is a feature on recent versions (Marshmallow and up seems to have it - it might go older, I can't look). I have actually put my phone into guest mode to lend it to people at the office.
