> This is a welcome step. I moved (back) to iPhone recently and one thing I miss from Android is Work Profiles that can be turned on and off and act as pretty much a separated user. It sounds like this is slightly more limited than that, but it’s a good start. At least being able to easily turn work stuff off on the weekend is a huge deal for work life balance (and I feel a bit uncomfortable when my work stuff is effectively not isolated from my personal stuff.)
Did Android do away with work profiles recently? I used to have one and then following an update from the Enterprise, the apps were commingled and there was no way to explicitly "turn off work".
- yati 7y agoI'm using Android (Pixel 3), and the work profile works for me. IMO it is much better than having to carry two phones.
- john-radio 7y agoIs it something different than just a separate local account?
