I'd love that feature (android 9+) if it allowed me to install some of the gazillion apps (e.g. every bloody fast food place that only has deals via their app) but restricts them from accessing my real user contacts, emails, msgs, gps/location, etc.
Blackberry phones had this feature and it was pretty bulletproof.
- dheera 5y agoI believe users cannot access each others' data. So yes you can use it this way. I'm pretty sure it existed at Android 9. Are you running stock Android or some Samsung bull?
- mimimi31 5y agoHave a look at Shelter[1] or Insular[2]. Both make use of Android's work profile feature to completely isolate apps in a separate environment.
