Ask HN: What features do you wish Android had?
- disadvantage 5y agoTwo features I'd love to see: - Profiles. Different buckets for different things. One for work, another for leisure, etc. - Some kind of alerting system to notify the user if the phone is potentially compromised / hacked. Could be a simple scan to look for obvious red flags / heuristics of known in-the-wild malware.
