Hi there. I need to use my phone for work, but want to isolate anything that is work related. What's the recommended way of doing so these days? Found the Foss app called Shelter, but found it to be a bit buggy and seems to have been a while since previous update. Let me know about any tips or recommendations regarding this! ๐Ÿ™Œ

I've used Island in the past and it worked fine

Island doesnt block main profile contact snooping by an app in the work profile. I recommend shelter for anyone who isnt set on either.

Interesting, could you share the fdroid link to that? Not seeing it on fdroid/droidify

Looks like it's only on the play store and GitHub, you could use obtainium. But it's not been updated since 2023 apparently.

There is a maintained fork of Island on F-Droid, called Insular:
